Ballistic door panels (if equipped)

Your vehicle may be equipped with ballistic door panels on one or both

of the front doors. Doors equipped with a ballistic panel are marked with

a sticker on the interior door trim panel above the door handle indicating

“BALLISTIC PANEL”. Otherwise, doors with ballistic panels are visually

indistinguishable from standard doors. The ballistic panels are designed

to act as a shield for the officer at the scene of an altercation.

The door panels meet National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Level III

protection requirements. NIJ is the research, development, and

evaluation agency within the U. S. Department of Justice. The panels

have been tested and certified by a NIJ approved ballistic testing

laboratory, in accordance with the methodology included in NIJ Standard

0108.01 and Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) Standard MTD

05-01E.

Manufactured by combining ballistic grade ceramic and High

Performance Para-Aramid, this composite ballistic door panel has been

extensively tested with rounds called out in the above-referenced

specifications.

WARNING: As with body armor, protection provided by the

ballistic panel is limited. Certain rounds or combinations of

rounds may penetrate the panel and cause serious injury or death.

Use of ballistic door panels

It is critical that officers understand where the panel is located inside the

door in order to achieve optimal ballistic protection.

The door panels are designed to provide a shield for the officer at the

scene of an altercation. Any protection afforded the officer while

patrolling inside the vehicle is incidental.

The ballistic ceramic faces the outside of the door. It is imperative

that the officer using the panel as a ballistic shield has the

exterior of the door facing the threat. In other words, the officer

should be positioned behind the interior portion of the door for

ballistic protection.
