no....the tint might hold the glass together, but the sound of cracking glass with still be detected.

Well, don't glass sensors detect vibration instead of sound anyway? I'm not sure, but for some reason I thought they did.

if your speakers are on your alarm isn't.
the window glass sensor is just a microphone.
