'Smashing a window' is unlikely to incur costs of $30,000, perhaps $300 is a better estimate.
I would also argue that insurance resources, customer hassle, police resources and judicial resources are also all roughly equal for handling stolen items from a car, versus stolen items from a car + window broken.
