    Sure except under this logic there’s no injury to someone peering through your windows. After all they didn’t do anything else…

      Nice take.

      I myself am fine with the ruling, but only if we get a full-ownership deal on the car, and can legally completely gut and replace parts that do that. Also, the car should be sold with a warning label regarding these issues.
