Customer Value
VIN glass etching marks a vehicle’s identification number into its windows, making it far less attractive to steal and easier to recover if it is. Insurance company studies have shown about a 65 percent reduction in theft of etched vehicles, and the program adds up to $5,000 toward out-of-pocket expenses not covered by insurance if the vehicle is stolen. Programs are fully insured, licensed, and approved for sale in all states, and registered with the Department of Consumer Affairs.

The LaterBank Difference
LaterBank trains your F&I team to present the etching program with the actual recovery and deterrence data behind it, rather than treating it as an afterthought add-on, so customers understand exactly what they’re getting.
