First: 508D isn't meant to protect a hardtop especially bumper to bumper.

Secondly, 508D was designed as a content theft deterent especially for soft tops or open vehicles like Jeeps without doors.

Thirdly, two 508D's would be worse than one because they're emmiter/receivers. One would interfere with the other.

Fourthly, max would be warn away while touching the side glass or front windshield and maybe the back glass if you're lucky.
