Thinking of getting these. Anyone got a view if they're worth it or not?

They'll work.. But they look a bit silly stuck to the side of the car, or you can use them as nunchucks :)

You could go for the invisible film

I could understand something like that for the company car park or your garage wall but i suspect they'd go walkies on the supermarket run! They'll most likely do more damage than good when attaching/removing if the car is dirty, oh and the main reason not to get them is they look rediculous! >:D

They do look ridiculous, but if it stops those annoying door dents its well worth it, not sure how easy it wood be to attach the anti thief proof tether to the car.

the 'thief-proof' tether appears to be a-la tennis ball on a (steel) rope - throw the ball in the car, close door on rope

Seriously though how quick will you tire of putting them on (aside from how they look....).

Surely the OP is taking the piss?
