BMW 6 Series rear window price, by year
Pricing varies primarily with generation and specification — earlier models with simpler rear-glass designs are typically more affordable, whilst later variants with integrated antenna or heated elements carry higher replacement costs due to component complexity. ADAS requirements on the windscreen (a separate service) may also influence your overall cost if your model is fitted with camera-based driver-assistance systems, though rear-window pricing is independent of windscreen work.

What to expect during your BMW 6 Series rear window replacement
Booking a rear-window replacement is straightforward and takes just a few minutes online.
- 1
Complete a quick online quote using our guided quiz — no registration number needed. You'll get an instant quote within 60 seconds.
- 2
Select your preferred appointment date and confirm your booking. You can choose a mobile visit at your address or a workshop location.
- 3
Our parts team runs a final check to confirm your exact glass specification, including any integrated features like antenna or heating elements.
- 4
On the day, your allocated technician arrives with the correct replacement glass and fits it in typically 30–60 minutes. A shattered rear window means shard cleanup is part of the job; your fitter will remove accessible broken glass, but deeper interior detailing is best handled by a professional valet afterwards.
- 5
Your technician confirms the drive-away time and leaves you with documentation of the work completed and your two-year warranty details.
All replacements come with a two-year warranty covering workmanship and glass quality.
Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your 6 Series?
Most BMW 6 Series rear-window replacements can be carried out at your home or chosen location via our mobile service. However, if your 6 Series is fitted with front-windscreen camera systems (Driving Assistant or Driving Assistant Professional), and you're also having the windscreen replaced, the entire job — including any required windscreen calibration — will be scheduled at a workshop to ensure both replacements and calibration are completed in one controlled visit.
Calibration of windscreen cameras runs in parallel with the adhesive cure, so it doesn't extend your drive-away time. Your technician will confirm the location and timing before you book.
We confirm the specific answer for your vehicle when you book.

Antenna1
2011–2018An aerial laminated into the windscreen or rear window restores radio, DAB or TV reception without a roof-mounted mast.
What it means
An antenna is a conductive print laminated into the glass during manufacture, typically used for radio, DAB (digital audio broadcasting) or television reception. It replaces the traditional roof-mounted aerial mast found on older vehicles. The antenna is integrated into the glass interlayer and connected to the vehicle's receiver unit via a connector embedded in the glass edge. This design offers a cleaner aesthetic, reduces wind noise, and eliminates the vulnerability of a protruding mast to damage or theft.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's roof — if there is no visible aerial mast, your car likely has a laminated antenna. You can also ask your dealer or service centre whether your windscreen or rear window carries an antenna print. The connector may be visible on the glass edge or inside the door frame trim.
Replacement impact
When replacing glass with a laminated antenna, the replacement must carry the matching antenna print and connector to restore reception immediately on fitting. Aftermarket or original-equipment glass with the correct antenna specification is essential; a plain replacement will leave you without radio or DAB signal. Our fitters verify the antenna specification during booking and source the correct variant before the appointment.
Green1
2011–2018Green tint reduces glare and improves visual comfort by filtering certain light wavelengths.
What it means
Green tint is a light-filtering coating applied to the glass during manufacture. It absorbs and reduces transmission of certain wavelengths of light, primarily to cut glare from sunlight and reflections. The tint is subtle — often barely visible to the naked eye — but measurably improves visual comfort during prolonged driving, particularly in bright conditions. It's a factory specification chosen by the vehicle manufacturer to balance daylight comfort with interior visibility and aesthetic consistency across all glass in the vehicle.
How to tell
The easiest way to check is to roll your side window halfway down and hold a piece of white paper behind it. Look carefully for a tint cast — green tint will appear as a subtle green hue compared to clear glass. Your windscreen will have the same tint as your side windows. You can also ask your vehicle's dealership or service centre — they'll have the original specification on file.
Replacement impact
Green-tinted replacement glass must match the original tint specification to maintain visual consistency across all windows and preserve the vehicle's interior aesthetics. Aftermarket OE-equivalent (OEE) green-tinted glass is widely available, though some vehicles may require original equipment (OEM) dealership glass if the tint specification is proprietary. Tint does not affect calibration, cure time, or installation procedure — it's a cosmetic and functional specification only.
Heated Rear Windscreen1
2011–2018Heated rear windscreen with integrated wires clears mist and ice when you switch on the demister.
What it means
A heated rear windscreen contains fine heating wires embedded within the glass. When you activate the rear demister, an electrical current passes through these wires, warming the glass and melting ice or condensation. This feature is particularly useful in cold or damp weather, improving rear visibility quickly. The heating grid is integral to the glass and connected to your vehicle's electrical circuit via connectors at the base of the windscreen.
How to tell
Look at the rear windscreen from inside the vehicle — you will see a fine grid of horizontal lines across the glass, typically bronze or copper in colour. On the dashboard or steering wheel stalk, there will be a dedicated rear-demist button, usually marked with a windscreen symbol and heating lines. If in doubt, ask your vehicle's service centre or consult your handbook.
Replacement impact
Replacement rear windscreens with heated grids are widely available as original-equipment aftermarket or dealership parts. The new glass must include the factory heating grid and electrical connectors intact. The technician will reconnect the heating circuit to your vehicle's rear-demist switch. Heated rear windscreens are bonded glass, so adhesive cure time applies; drive-away time will be confirmed by the fitter on the day.
About the BMW 6 Series
The BMW 6 Series has spanned multiple generations since 2003, with rear-window designs evolving significantly across its lifespan. Early models feature straightforward toughened glass, while later variants incorporate integrated antenna elements and, on some trims, heated rear-window functionality to support modern convenience and safety systems.
From the mid-2010s onwards, many 6 Series models began carrying additional electronic features within the rear glass, requiring precise matching of those components during replacement. Your specific variant's features will be confirmed during the online quote process.
