Price variation is minimal across i3 variants because the model has consistent rear-window specification throughout its production run. The heated element and light-green tint are fitted across all active variants in our catalogue, so differences reflect mainly fitment complexity and the specialist's local labour rates rather than glass specification variation.

Booking your i3 rear-window replacement through UK Car Glass is straightforward — from quote to fitting in just a few steps.
Use our online widget to get an instant quote — answer three quick questions about your i3's year and features, and you'll see pricing in under 60 seconds.
Complete your booking online in under two minutes — choose your fitting date and whether you'd prefer mobile at your address or a workshop visit.
We'll match you with an approved fitter in your area who specialises in BMW glass replacement.
On fitting day, the fitter will remove the shattered rear glass, clean accessible shards from the interior, and install your replacement with the heating elements and connectors reconnected.
A shattered rear window creates many small glass shards — your fitter will remove what they can reach during the fit, but we recommend a professional interior valet afterwards for thorough detailing, as fragments can lodge in hard-to-access places.
Your replacement carries a two-year warranty on workmanship and glass quality.
The whole job typically takes 30–60 minutes of your fitter's time, and you can drive away once the adhesive has cured — your fitter will confirm the exact timing before they leave.
Most i3 rear-window replacements are carried out mobile at your address, as the rear window does not require ADAS camera calibration. However, if you prefer a workshop environment — for instance, to use the opportunity for an interior valet or other bodywork — your fitter can arrange that instead.
Mobile fitting is typically faster and more convenient, but the choice is yours at booking.

Green tint reduces glare and improves visual comfort by filtering certain light wavelengths.
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.
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.
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.

A distinctive light-green factory tint specific to the i3, slightly different in hue from standard European green glass and unique to this model.
Visible on your i3's rear window — this tint is standard across all variants and must be precisely matched at replacement for correct factory appearance.
The BMW i3 has been in continuous production since 2013, evolving through two main generations with consistent rear-window engineering across the range. The i3's rear liftgate glass is a fixed panel — not operable — and on all variants in our catalogue features integrated heating elements for rear demist functionality.
All i3 models carry a distinctive light-green factory tint on the rear window, which is specific to this vehicle and must be precisely matched at replacement to maintain factory appearance and light transmission. The heating grid and electrical connectors are integral to the glass unit and must be preserved during fitment to keep the rear-demist circuit functional.
