Citroen C8 rear window price, by year
Rear window replacement costs vary based on the presence of integrated features — heating elements and solar-control tinting add to the glass specification. Earlier C8 models (2003–2006) and later variants (2007–2010) use similar glass patterns, so pricing reflects primarily the feature set rather than generation.
| Year | Price range | Variants | Quote |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2010 | £315 — £315 | 1 variant | Price my 2010 |
| 2009 | £315 — £315 | 1 variant | Price my 2009 |
| 2008 | £315 — £315 | 1 variant | Price my 2008 |
| 2007 | £315 — £315 | 1 variant | Price my 2007 |
| 2006 | £315 — £315 | 1 variant | Price my 2006 |

What to expect during your Citroen C8 rear window replacement
From instant quote to fitted glass, the process is designed around your schedule.
- 1
Answer a quick online quiz about your C8 to confirm the exact rear window variant — takes about a minute.
- 2
Receive an instant quote covering the glass, fitting, and warranty.
- 3
Choose your preferred date and location — mobile fitting at your address or at a local workshop.
- 4
On the day, your approved fitter arrives with the matched replacement glass and completes the job in typically 30–60 minutes.
- 5
Your fitter confirms the minimum drive-away time before leaving — usually 1–2 hours depending on the adhesive used and weather conditions.
- 6
A professional interior valet is recommended afterwards to remove any small glass shards that may have lodged in hard-to-reach places during the replacement.
All work comes with a two-year warranty covering workmanship, glass quality, and any issues arising from the replacement.
Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your C8?
The C8's rear window replacement is typically carried out as a mobile fitting at your home or workplace — no ADAS calibration is needed because the C8 predates camera-based driver assistance systems. Your fitter brings all necessary equipment for safe glass removal, shard cleanup, and secure installation of the replacement.
If you prefer a workshop environment or your location presents access challenges, mobile fitting can be replaced with a workshop visit at your request.

Brake Light1
2003–2010A brake light integrated into the rear window glass itself, requiring a matching replacement to reconnect the original lighting circuit.
What it means
A brake light integrated into the rear window glass is a lighting element built directly into the glass panel during manufacturing. Rather than using a separate lamp cluster mounted to the vehicle body, the light circuit is routed through conductive elements — typically a silkscreen pattern, wire network, or bracket assembly — embedded in or bonded to the glass itself. When you brake, this integrated light illuminates to warn following traffic. It combines functionality with design integration, reducing the number of separate components on the rear of the vehicle.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's rear window for a visible pattern of fine lines or wires running across the glass, usually near the top edge or spanning the upper portion. Look at your vehicle's manual or contact your dealer's service centre — they can confirm whether your rear window carries an integrated brake light. If you see a separate brake-light cluster mounted to the bodywork instead, your vehicle does not have this feature.
Replacement impact
The replacement rear window must carry the identical integrated brake-light pattern so the original lighting circuit reconnects without modification. The conductive elements — whether silkscreen, wiring, or bracket fittings — must align precisely with the vehicle's electrical connections. Using a standard rear window without this pattern would disable the brake light. We source the correct OE-specification glass to ensure a seamless fit and restore full functionality.
Green1
2003–2010Green 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
2003–2010Heated 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.
Solar Control1
2003–2010Solar control glass absorbs infrared rays to reduce heat and improve cabin comfort.
What it means
Solar control is a coating applied to the windscreen that absorbs the sun's infrared radiation rather than allowing it to pass through into the cabin. This reduces solar heat gain, helping to keep the interior cooler and more comfortable, particularly in warm weather or direct sunlight. The coating is transparent to visible light, so it doesn't darken the windscreen or affect visibility. It's a passive thermal management feature that works continuously whenever the sun is shining on the glass.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's specification sheet or contact your dealership service centre to confirm whether solar control glass is fitted. Some manufacturers list it as 'solar control windscreen', 'heat-reflective glass', or 'thermal management glass'. It's a factory-fitted feature and won't be visibly obvious from outside the car — the coating is integral to the glass itself.
Replacement impact
Solar control glass is a factory-fitted specification. When replacing the windscreen, a solar control variant must be sourced to match the original. This is a standard glass type with no special fitting implications or calibration requirements. Cure and drive-away times follow normal windscreen bonding procedures. Confirm with your fitter that the replacement glass includes solar control to maintain the original thermal performance.
About the Citroen C8
The Citroen C8 is a seven-seat MPV produced from 2003 to 2010, designed for family practicality and long-distance comfort. Rear window replacement on the C8 is straightforward — the glass is toughened and typically features integrated heating elements for demisting and frost removal.
The heating elements serve double duty, functioning as part of the vehicle's AM/FM antenna system. Replacement glass must match these factory specifications to preserve both demisting function and radio performance. All C8 variants in our catalogue carry green-tinted rear glass with solar-control properties, helping reduce cabin heat and UV exposure.
