Unhappy Protecting decals? wax?

I recently got my RX8Club decals and it took only a few days before someone decided it would be "funny" and "cool" to rip half of them off the car. They were located in the bottom corners of the back window. I ordered some new ones from Polak and I'm wondering if there is anyway I can protect them other than chaining two attack dogs to my car?

Any ideas? I thought about putting a coat of wax over the decals but since it's in a window I'm not sure its advisable and the wax might accumulate on the decal edges and leave whitish marks... so I'm not sure this is a good thing to do.

You suggestions?

The only idea I have is to find a way to put them on the inside of the glass. They aren't made that way, however, so that would involve desolving the adhersive on the back and applying adhesive to the front. It probably won't look as good and not a good idea if you have tint. The other option is to buy a lawn chair, sit by your car, and beat the b'jesus out of anyone who touches your car. If they can't rip stuff off your car, they'll just kick in a door panel or scratch it. There is no real security.

Park in a puddle and throw a lead from the positive of your battery in it.
