Solar Control18
2002–2023On the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 18 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (55%); model years 2002–2023.
What it means
A special coating on the windscreen that absorbs the sun's infrared rays, reducing heat buildup inside the cabin — improves comfort and reduces air-conditioning load.
On your Ford Fiesta
Optional upgrade on higher-specification trims, particularly on newer Fiestas; verified during quote.
Rain Sensor15
2005–2023No calibration after replacementOn the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 15 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (45%); model years 2005–2023; no calibration after replacement.
What it means

On your Ford Fiesta
Standard on many 2015+ variants with driver assistance packs; your quote will confirm presence.
Heated Windscreen12
1995–2023On the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 12 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (36%); model years 1995–2023.
What it means
A mesh of thin wires bonded into the laminated glass that heats up to clear frost and condensation quickly — typically optional on mid-to-upper-spec Fiestas.
On your Ford Fiesta

Acoustic (Noise reduction)9
2008–2023On the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 9 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (27%); model years 2008–2023.
Acoustic glass reduces cabin noise for a quieter, more comfortable ride.
What it means
Acoustic windscreen glass is laminated with a special acoustic interlayer that absorbs and dampens sound vibrations. It reduces exterior noise—from traffic, wind, and road surface—before it enters the passenger compartment. This makes the cabin noticeably quieter and creates a more peaceful driving experience. It's a comfort feature, not a safety one; standard laminated windscreens already meet impact safety requirements.
How to tell
Check your windscreen for an ear symbol, the word 'Acoustic', a capital 'A', or the term 'SoundScreen' printed in one of the four corners. These markings indicate acoustic-grade glass. You can also ask your vehicle's dealership or service centre whether your model came fitted with acoustic glass—it's often a factory option on comfort or premium trims.
Replacement impact
Acoustic glass is always laminated and bonds to the frame like any standard windscreen, so replacement follows the normal bonded-glass procedure. No specialist calibration is required. The replacement technician will fit it using standard adhesive and sealant. Cure time and drive-away restrictions are identical to standard laminated windscreens. Acoustic glass is widely available as an aftermarket OE-equivalent option.
Bracket For Safety Features5
2013–2023Calibration varies by vehicleOn the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 5 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (15%); model years 2013–2023; calibration varies by vehicle.
What it means
The moulded shroud that sits over the forward-facing camera and sensors at the top of the windscreen — on most replacements, this trim is transferred from your old glass or supplied with the new one.
On your Ford Fiesta
Present on Co-Pilot360-equipped Fiestas from 2020 onwards; your fitter transfers or supplies the bracket as part of the job.
Clear5
1976–2023Calibration varies by vehicleOn the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 5 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (15%); model years 1976–2023; calibration varies by vehicle.
Clear windscreen glass has no tint; most cars have a slight tint as standard.
What it means
A clear windscreen contains no added tint layer. Most modern windscreens incorporate a subtle tint (typically blue, green, grey or bronze) as standard to reduce glare, provide UV protection, and improve cabin comfort. A genuinely clear windscreen is the absence of this tint. Clear glass is less common than tinted variants and is sometimes specified for aesthetic or operational reasons, though the tint difference is usually imperceptible to the naked eye.
How to tell
Lower your side window halfway and hold a white piece of paper behind it. If you see a noticeable colour cast (blue, green, grey or bronze) in the side glass, your windscreen has the same tint. You can also ask your vehicle's dealership or service centre to confirm the windscreen specification in your service records.
Replacement impact
Clear windscreen replacement uses the same installation process as any other windscreen. No special calibration or extended cure time applies. Sourcing is straightforward — clear glass is widely available as an aftermarket replacement. Installation time and drive-away restrictions follow standard windscreen replacement timings. If your vehicle has ADAS features (forward-facing camera or radar), calibration may be required after replacement depending on your specific vehicle; we confirm this when we look up your car details.
Blue Sun Strip4
1976–2002On the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 4 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (12%); model years 1976–2002.
A blue-tinted gradient band across the top of your windscreen that reduces glare without affecting your view of the road.
What it means
A blue sun strip is a tinted gradient band built into the upper edge of your windscreen's laminate layer. It reduces glare from sunlight reflecting off the road and bonnet without darkening your main field of vision. The tint is created during manufacture as part of the glass laminate itself — it cannot be added or removed later. Sun strips are a windscreen-only feature; rear and side windows cannot carry this effect because they use tempered rather than laminated glass.
How to tell
Look at the top of your windscreen from inside the car — you'll see a distinct blue-tinted band running horizontally across the upper portion. Check your vehicle's specification sheet or ask your dealership service centre whether your windscreen is listed as a 'blue sun strip' or 'tinted sun strip' variant. Your invoice or parts manual will confirm it.
Replacement impact
When replacing a windscreen with a blue sun strip, the replacement must be the sun-strip variant — a standard plain windscreen will not replicate the tinted band. Your replacement glass is sourced as an exact match to your original specification. There are no additional calibration or cure implications beyond a standard windscreen replacement. Fitting and drive-away times remain unchanged.
Dynamic Camera Calibration Process4
2017–2023Calibration varies by vehicleOn the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 4 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (12%); model years 2017–2023; calibration varies by vehicle.
Dynamic calibration uses road driving to recalibrate your camera after windscreen replacement.
What it means
Dynamic camera calibration is a procedure in which a technician drives the vehicle on marked roads at set speeds after the windscreen has been fitted and the adhesive has cured. During this drive, the forward-facing camera relearns its reference points — lane markings, road signs, road edges and surrounding traffic patterns — so it can resume accurate operation of camera-dependent safety and driver-assistance systems. This recalibration is necessary because any windscreen replacement, even with precision fitting, can introduce small shifts in the camera's optical alignment relative to the road.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's handbook or contact your dealer to confirm whether your car has a forward-facing camera system. If it does, ask the dealer whether your specific model requires dynamic (road-drive) or static (target-board) calibration after windscreen replacement. You can also ask your fitter — they will establish this when they look up your vehicle's specification.
Replacement impact
After your windscreen is fitted and the bonding has cured, a technician will drive the vehicle on marked roads at controlled speeds to allow the camera to relearn its environment. This extends the overall job duration beyond the glass-fitting time alone. Depending on your vehicle, calibration may be performed during the same visit or scheduled separately. We confirm the exact procedure and location (mobile or workshop) when we look up your specific vehicle.
Mono Camera4
2017–2023Calibration varies by vehicleOn the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 4 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (12%); model years 2017–2023; calibration varies by vehicle.
A single camera mounted near the rear-view mirror that helps with lane-keeping and collision avoidance.
What it means
A mono camera is a single-lens camera positioned behind the windscreen, typically in the upper centre area near the rear-view mirror. It captures the road ahead and uses computer vision to detect lane markings, vehicles, and road hazards. The camera feeds data to driver-assistance systems such as lane-keeping assist, lane-departure warning, and forward-collision warning. It forms the visual foundation of these safety features, allowing the vehicle to monitor road position and surrounding traffic automatically.
How to tell
Look in the black trim area above the windscreen, centred behind the rear-view mirror — you will see a small triangular lens assembly or dark lens cover. Check your vehicle handbook or ask your dealer's service department to confirm your model has lane-assistance or collision-warning features; vehicles with these systems almost always have a mono camera. Dashboard warning symbols related to lane or collision systems also indicate the presence of this camera.
Replacement impact
When the windscreen is replaced, the camera bracket and lens assembly must be removed and carefully repositioned on the new glass. The camera may require calibration after fitting to ensure accurate road detection and lane recognition. Calibration needs vary by vehicle — we confirm the exact procedure when we look up your specific vehicle. The job may take longer than a standard windscreen replacement, and workshop facilities may be required if calibration demands a controlled environment.
Light Sensor3
2012–2016On the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 3 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (9%); model years 2012–2016.
Light sensors automatically turn your headlights on at dusk or in tunnels; the replacement windscreen must include the sensor bracket.
What it means
A light sensor is a small optical detector mounted on the windscreen or dashboard that monitors ambient light levels. When light drops below a threshold—at dusk or when entering a tunnel—it triggers your headlights to switch on automatically. This removes the need to manually operate the lights and improves safety by ensuring visibility when conditions darken suddenly. The sensor is typically mounted behind the windscreen's top edge or integrated into the interior mirror housing, where it has an unobstructed view of the sky.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's handbook or ask your dealer whether your car has automatic headlight control or 'auto lights' as a feature. If equipped, you'll see a symbol on the stalk or dashboard dial marked with a light-bulb icon or 'AUTO' setting. When you select this mode and the ambient light dims, the headlights activate without manual input. Not all cars have this feature; it's typically found on newer or higher-specification models.
Replacement impact
When replacing a windscreen on a vehicle with a light sensor, the replacement glass must include the correct sensor bracket or mounting point to preserve the auto-headlight function. The sensor itself does not require software calibration—it relies on physical positioning behind the windscreen's upper trim or within the mirror assembly. Ensuring the bracket is correctly installed during the fit is essential; if omitted, the auto-light feature will fail and cannot be restored without additional parts and labour.
Camera2
2013–2023Calibration varies by vehicleOn the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 2 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (6%); model years 2013–2023; calibration varies by vehicle.
A camera mounted near the rear-view mirror monitors the road ahead for lane-keep and traffic-sign features.
What it means
A forward-facing camera positioned in the windscreen header area (typically mounted on or near the rear-view mirror bracket) captures video of the road ahead. This camera feeds data to driver-assistance systems such as lane-departure warning, lane-keep assist, autonomous emergency braking, and traffic-sign recognition. The camera is a core component of modern ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) and requires precise alignment after windscreen replacement to ensure these safety features function correctly.
How to tell
Look for a small dark triangular or lens-shaped component mounted in the black plastic trim area above the windscreen, typically centred near the rear-view mirror or slightly to one side. Your vehicle's handbook or infotainment menu may reference 'Lane Assist', 'Traffic Sign Recognition', or 'Autonomous Emergency Braking'. Ask your dealer or service centre directly if your car is equipped with a forward-facing camera system.
Replacement impact
Windscreen replacement on camera-equipped vehicles requires calibration of the camera system after the new glass is fitted. The exact calibration procedure—whether static (using a target board in a controlled environment) or dynamic (road-based)—varies by vehicle make, model, and year. We confirm the precise calibration requirement when we look up your specific vehicle. Calibration ensures lane-keep, sign recognition, and emergency-braking systems function safely. This may extend the fitting schedule and may necessitate workshop-based fitting rather than mobile attendance.
Coating2
2012–2023On the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 2 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (6%); model years 2012–2023.
Coated windscreens have a blue or purple tint and protect your car from UV rays and heat.
What it means
A coated windscreen has a special protective layer applied to the glass that appears as a blue or purple tint and often reflects a silvery-blue colour in bright sunlight. This coating is designed to reduce the amount of ultraviolet (UV) radiation and solar heat that enters the vehicle, helping to keep the interior cooler and protecting upholstery and dashboard components from UV damage and fading. The coating is integral to the glass and doesn't require any special maintenance from you.
How to tell
Look at your windscreen in bright daylight — a coated windscreen will show a distinct blue or purple tint and a silvery-blue reflection when the sun hits it directly. Check your vehicle's service booklet or window sticker (usually on the driver's door jamb), which may list the glass specification. Alternatively, ask your dealership or service centre to confirm whether your windscreen carries a UV or heat-rejection coating.
Replacement impact
When replacing a coated windscreen, the replacement glass must match the original specification — including the coating type and tint level — to maintain the same UV and heat protection and to preserve the vehicle's interior aesthetics. Original-equipment or equivalent aftermarket coated glass is sourced to specification. The coating is applied during glass manufacture; no post-fit treatment is required. Fitting and cure times are unaffected by the presence of the coating.
Sensor Heated Zone2
2017–2023Calibration varies by vehicleOn the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 2 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (6%); model years 2017–2023; calibration varies by vehicle.
Heated zones around sensors prevent frost and moisture buildup, helping your safety systems work reliably.
What it means
A sensor heated zone is an electrical heating element integrated into or around camera, radar, or sensor mounts on the windscreen. Its purpose is to prevent frost, ice, condensation, and moisture accumulation on sensor lenses and housings. This keeps safety systems — such as lane-keeping assist, collision warning, and adaptive cruise control — functioning accurately in cold, wet, or foggy conditions. Without this heating, moisture or ice can obscure sensors and cause them to malfunction or deactivate.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's handbook for mention of 'heated sensor zone' or 'sensor heating' in the windscreen or ADAS section. Look at the top edge of your windscreen where cameras or radar modules are mounted — you may see small heating elements or wiring near these components. Ask your dealership or service centre directly: they can confirm whether your specific model includes sensor heating as standard.
Replacement impact
Windscreens with heated sensor zones require careful handling during replacement to preserve the heating element and its electrical connections. The heating circuit must be reconnected properly after the new glass is fitted. Depending on the vehicle, this may involve static or dynamic camera calibration after installation. We confirm the exact procedure — including any calibration needs — when we look up your vehicle details.
LIDAR1
2013–2016Bespoke calibrationOn the Ford Fiesta: fitted on 1 of the 33 windscreen variants we list (3%); model years 2013–2016; bespoke calibration.
LIDAR helps your car sense its surroundings for advanced safety and driver-assistance features.
What it means
LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is a sensor technology that uses laser beams to detect objects, obstacles, and road features in three dimensions. It creates a detailed map of the vehicle's surroundings in real time, enabling advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) such as adaptive cruise control, collision avoidance, and autonomous emergency braking. LIDAR complements camera and radar systems by providing precise distance and depth information, even in poor visibility or low-light conditions. It is increasingly fitted to modern vehicles as part of their safety and autonomous-capability infrastructure.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's handbook or contact your dealership to confirm LIDAR fitment. LIDAR sensors are typically mounted on the roof, bumpers, or within the windscreen/rear-window frame area. You may see reference to 'LIDAR', 'laser radar', or specific safety-feature names (e.g. 'adaptive cruise control', 'autonomous emergency braking') that rely on LIDAR in your documentation.
Replacement impact
If your windscreen or rear window houses or frames a LIDAR sensor, replacement requires careful handling to preserve or recalibrate the sensor post-fit. LIDAR calibration procedures vary significantly by vehicle make, model, and year—some require static alignment using specialist target equipment, others demand dynamic road-drive procedures, and some use a combination. We identify the exact calibration requirement when we look up your specific vehicle and confirm it with you before booking.
About the Ford Fiesta
The Ford Fiesta has been a cornerstone of the UK market since 1976, evolving through eight generations. Early models carried straightforward laminated windscreens with minimal trim features, while later generations introduced rain sensors, heated windscreens, and solar-control glass on higher-specification vehicles.
From around 2020, newer Fiestas began to integrate Ford's Co-Pilot360 driver assistance suite, which includes forward-facing camera systems for lane-keeping assist, traffic-sign recognition, and automatic emergency braking. Windscreen replacement on these camera-equipped variants requires recalibration of the image processing module after the glass is fitted.
