Is doing this dangerous to my window?

This is the number one thing all people love to see with my stereo, but if it has potential to break my window I'm going to quit doing it.

600 rms per sub... that isnt really flex ya see in the vid thats a crappy camera that makes it look so intense.. I dont doubt you have a lil bit of flex but not much in a big suv on them subs and that little power...
not to downplay ur setup at all..but it really is not near as loud as you may think..alot more has been done for a ton cheaper...that sounds better..I can do 3 cheap 12's on 1/2 the power that make that CVX sub look like pyle...( kicker dealer fwiw...cvx are nothing special other than the huge price tag...)
but as long as you like it that is all that matters right?

Well I do believe my CVX's are 750 rms a piece and that is literally what the window looks like, thats not just a crappy camera making it look like rubber. The window moves a good 1/2-3/4 inch in each direction from its stand still displacement. But yes I'm very happy with my 4 12's.

LOL, window? 1st concern, your ears!
Then, is this some preconceived window adjustment that has to be adhered to? If not, roll it down. I can only presume that the sound would increase by inverse proportion to the concern for the welfare of the window.
The windows that seal into the body, typically without any mechanical functionality, are the ones that warrant the greatest concern. Sunroof's, hatchback's and rear side windows are locations that will be most subject to failure.

Yeah I can do alot more with my pyle 15s mounted free air running a concord amp bridged. Makes the cars next to me windows flex atleast 3/4 inch. For Lanarian the flotons perform better when diligently making sure of positive and negative flotons....

next time take the video looking down at the top of the window. That will be a better judge of how much it is flexing.
Precisely. The cam location is just short of sitting right in front of the port.

This is a video I just shot from ABOVE the glass. If this isn't satisfactory or up to your guys par then I'm sure you'll let me know.

Flex is beleivable - I have redone my front windshield seal in my integra twice, and need it again.
I am running two 18 inch drivers off of 450 watts apiece. I even had the auto glass place do it the last time, with a 1 year warranty - but to my dismay, it needs it again. Granted it is a hatchback, and my enclosure eats up 11 cubes ...I'm firing up into the rear hatch - no problems with the hatch, but the front glass just cant deal....
So other than that, no problems exist, don't worry about breaking the glass, I've seen 160db's in a car and the glass holds out fine. IDK what I'm hitting since I dropped the Zeus in, but it definitely is not 160 DB's! 150 is a GUESS!
What I'm gettin at is I have WAY smaller cab than u, and most likely several db's louder - you have no worries.
