About FIAT rear window replacement

FIAT's range spans compact city cars like the Punto through to the workhorse Ducato van, with the Tipo family saloon, Doblo MPV, and Bravo hatchback anchoring the passenger-car lineup. Rear windows across this range are typically toughened glass — designed to shatter into small pieces rather than splinter, a safety feature that's standard across the brand.

From 2020 onwards, FIAT has equipped an expanding portion of its range with Co-Driver, a forward-facing ADAS system that uses cameras and sensors for driver assistance and traffic-sign recognition. The Ducato MY2020 and later, along with newer Doblo variants, feature this suite — which means windscreen replacement on these models triggers camera recalibration, adding complexity to the fit. Rear-window replacements themselves carry no ADAS requirement across the brand.

Some FIAT models, notably the 500C, integrate an antenna amplifier module into the rear glass itself — a feature that requires careful handling during replacement so the module transfers cleanly to the new pane.

What drives FIAT rear window prices

Rear-window replacement costs vary across FIAT's range depending on generation and whether the rear glass carries integrated features like an antenna amplifier. The Ducato, as the brand's volume model, sees strong parts availability and competitive pricing at the accessible end. Newer models with ADAS-equipped windscreens (triggering calibration on a front-glass job) don't directly affect rear-window cost, but they do influence workshop scheduling — ADAS-equipped variants may be routed to workshop locations rather than mobile fitting.

Smaller, older models like the Uno and Tempra sit at the entry-level end of the cost spectrum, while the Ulysse MPV and later Tipo generations typically carry higher calibration and parts complexity.

Mobile fitting or workshop visit

Most FIAT rear-window replacements can be completed mobile at your address, since rear glass doesn't carry ADAS cameras or calibration requirements. However, if your vehicle has a newer-generation windscreen with a Co-Driver camera system, that system may require workshop-based calibration if you book a windscreen replacement separately — but this doesn't affect rear-window work.

Workshop visits become relevant for rear-window jobs primarily when weather is poor, when internal shard cleanup is extensive, or when your local fitter prefers a controlled environment for glass bonding. The specialist you're matched with will discuss location options at booking.

Great customer service throughout

Great customer service throughout. The price was quoting 1/2 of what other places were so great value for money. I was told my original booking date had to be moved to the next day. This I had no issue with as I was notified as soon as possible. I was then informed they had found someone to fulfil the original date I had booked which was amazing. They went out of their way to fulfil my original booking. On the day, I was called 30 minutes prior to the technicians arrival giving an exact time of when he was due to arrive. Once the technician arrived he was very friendly and knowledgeable answering all questions I had. The glass was fitted quickly within an hour and the man tidied up after himself. Overall great service, would recommend.

Excellent Service, Great Price

The engineers came by and were extremely patient with me as I was unable to answer the door right away because I was working at the time. They were so friendly and helpful, completed the job quickly and cleared away all the broken glass in and around my car. Not only did they clear the broken glass but they hoovered the entire interior of the car which was a lovely surprise when I saw the result. The customer service side of the business was also fantastic, really can't fault the service I received at all. Would recommend UK Car Glass for anyone who has any issues with their glasswork. Hopefully I won't be needing any more glass replacements for my car but if I do, I know I'll be coming back!

Easy to book an appointment on their website. Richard who came out to fit the replacement windscreen had the wrong part but he made sure that the correct replacement was sourced and within a couple of days was back to refit. When things don't go to plan how a company responds shows their quality and UK Car Glass were excellent!

Passenger side car window

I had my passenger side car window smashed and broken into. This was done in the early hours of Friday morning. I found UK Car Glass after a brief search and comparison of other replacement glass specialists. I booked an appointment online and the came to fix it early Monday afternoon. The engineer John arrived and explained what he was going to do. He was very efficient and did a good job of clearing out the remainder of the broken glass that still trapped inside my door. But there was a slight issue with the replacement glass (something to do with a faulty seal which is apparently quite common amongst my car model) which John was very honest about and explained that in his professional opinion that he wouldn't be happy to leave me with the current glass he had fitted. He explained that he would leave the faulty glass in for the time being, just so my car had some protection from the elements overnight and he would order another replacement glass. He booked me in for another appointment the next day, Tuesday and assured me he would ensure the new replacement glass would be suitable. He returned mid to late afternoon the next day and fitted the new glass very quickly and explained that he was satisfied with it. Overall, a very good and efficient experience. Even with the faulty replacement glass, but John was very honest and did a great job.

NEVER STRIM NEAR YOUR CAR

I broke my front passenger window strimming the edge of my front lawn, when the strimmer shot a stone towards my car. Although I had cover I thought I might find out how much it might be. An online search brought up UK Car Glass and the price was £295, reasonable I thought. The only other site that was thrown up and did windows other that a front screen was Autoglass and I had to ring up to get a price. I asked the agent to give me a non-insured figure and his response was a little shocking. He got as far as "One Thousand" when I cut in with "WHAT!" "You must be mad." He did offer a discount, but it wouln't be anywhere near the price from UK Car Glass. I told him to forget it and booked my appointment with UK Car Glass for the next day. I was not there when the work was done, but I inspected my vehicle on my return home and was pleased with what I found. I will never use Autoglass again, although it is 30 years since my last window replacement, so I will probably be dead, before I need another.

I got in touch with UK Car Glass via the website and filled in the details required (it was out of office hours) the following morning I received a text around 8am. The quote was almost £500 cheaper then the big national company. I accepted the quote via the link and made payment. Within 10 minutes my order had gone through and a technician had been assigned to me. Got a call from the technician asked if I was free that afternoon which I was so it worked out great for me. Arrived promptly at 1.45pm and had finished by around 2.20pm. I would highly recommend UK Car Glass. Really impressed with the speed of the service received. My student has a driving test booked for Monday and the examiners will not take a car out on test with the size of cracked I had on my Ford Focus (23 plate) once again thank you.

First class service throughout

After a little accident with my rear screen, I filled in the order form online late on a Monday Evening (24/5/21) to place a order and arrange for a technician to come out. It gave me the following day as available which I thought couldn't be true as by this time it was 20:30 Monday evening. The following day came I received two text messages and a call from the technician to say he was on his way. All complete by by 10am. I wasn't on site to see his work but neighbour was more then happy to check it all over. Considering the order was placed at 20:30 the pervious night, I'm over the moon that the rear screen was replaced before 10am. Excellent website, excellent service, excellent communication throughout. Thanks UK Car Glass. Hopefully will not need your service again but if I do I shall return.

Excellent Customer Service and Great Job

After an on-going issue with Autoglass, who appeared unwilling and unable to source a new windscreen under my insurance policy, it was agreed that I could source this windscreen through another company. I read the positive reviews for UK Car Glass and they did not disappoint. They sourced the windscreen within a day and 2 days later attended to fit and calibrate the windscreen at my home. Took Ryan and Martin c. 90 minutes to complete the fitting at my home address. Very neat, tidy and efficient job. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone. It is just a shame that this company is not affiliated with insurance companies as the service they provide is one that other companies should aspire to.

I thought I had windscreen cover through my insurance but was notified by Autoglass that wasn't the case. Autoglass wanted to charge me £639 to replace my windscreen with a 4 day wait and it would require me to drive 30 miles to their site. I looked elsewhere and came across UK car glass who offered a mobile service for £331, they even called out next working day, at this time of year I was so happy. I received a call from SilverScreen who I presume do all the work for UK car glass on the day at 10am, it was actually raining so they said they would and try and get here later in the day, turned up (2 men) at 2:30pm, changed my windscreen within 30 minutes. 1 year warranty is included, couldn't be happier

Great Company.

I had enqiured about a front passenger window and booked for thr next day to have it fitted. The company were so great! They had to change the date as the installation guy was busy, but they offered me a refund if I couldn't do the next day they advised which was only 2 days later and not an issue. They communicated with me well letting me know before they were due to arrive by giving me an estimated time and a message when they weren't too far they also had the job done so quick just over half hour. It was the cheapest quote I had been given, plus they came to my house which made it much easier. If I'm unlucky enough to have my window put through again, I'd go to UK car glass again!

Great service and a great price!

I'd waited a week to be given an appointment by the usual insurance approved company and a quote of nearly £1 k for a rear screen on a Smart Forfour! I was told it was with purchasing and they couldn't give me a date to fit a replacement. Imagine my joy when I phoned Jaquie at UK Car Glass and on a Friday afternoon and within 15 minutes she had arranged for a mobile team to come to my home, on Monday, and fit a new rear screen at a third of the price! Jaquie was great and so we're the fitting team. Professional all the way, so good, they're now in my directory for the future. Thoroughly recommended.

What FIAT rear window features mean

Tap a feature to see what it is, how to spot it on your car, and how it affects glass replacement. We confirm the exact match for your vehicle when you book.

  • Green72
    1988–2026

    Green 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.

  • Solar Control58
    1993–2026

    Solar 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.

  • Brake Light23
    1995–2026

    A 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.

  • Left20
    1994–2026

    Left side window — choose this if your car has a left-side door window that needs replacing.

    What it means

    The left side window is the glass panel in the door on the driver's side of the vehicle (or front passenger side in right-hand-drive markets where the driver sits on the right). This is an operable window — it rolls up and down using the window mechanism in the door. Unlike the windscreen or rear window, side windows are typically toughened glass, which means they shatter into small fragments if broken rather than cracking into large shards. Replacing a left side window is a straightforward job that doesn't involve adhesive bonding.

    How to tell

    Look at the driver's side of your car — the left side window is the glass panel in the front-left door that you can wind down. If this glass is cracked, chipped, or missing, you need a left side window replacement. You can also check your vehicle's documentation or ask your dealer's service centre to confirm which positions are affected if you're unsure.

    Replacement impact

    Left side window replacement is typically faster than windscreen work because there is no adhesive bonding and no calibration involved. The glass is held in place by clips, seals, and the door mechanism. However, if the window has shattered, glass fragments may lodge in hard-to-reach areas inside the door or trim. We recommend a professional interior valet afterwards to ensure all shards are thoroughly removed from seat mechanisms, seatbelts, and door channels.

  • Right19
    1994–2026

    Your vehicle has two rear doors, so a four-door configuration.

    What it means

    This attribute identifies whether your vehicle is a four-door or two-door model. Four-door cars have a rear door on both the driver and passenger sides; two-door cars have only front doors. This classification affects which glass panels are present in your vehicle — four-door models include rear side windows and rear doors, whilst two-door models do not. Knowing your door configuration helps us identify the correct glass type and position for your windscreen or window replacement.

    How to tell

    Count the doors on your vehicle. If you can open a door behind the front passenger and driver seats on both sides, you have a four-door (right) configuration. If only the front doors open, you have a two-door model. You can also check your vehicle's documentation or ask your dealer or service centre — they'll confirm the exact door count in seconds.

    Replacement impact

    Four-door models have rear side windows and rear doors that may require replacement. This affects the range of glass panels we can supply and fit for you. All standard glass types in four-door cars — windscreen, rear window, front and rear side windows — are within our service scope and follow the same replacement and fitting process as two-door variants. The door configuration itself does not alter calibration or cure-time procedures.

  • Fitting Hardware18
    1988–2026

    Pre-fitted clips and brackets that secure the glass to your vehicle, supplied ready to bond as a complete unit.

    What it means

    Fitting hardware comprises the clips, brackets, mouldings and adhesive retention components that hold the glass securely in place on your vehicle's frame. When your replacement glass is supplied with fitting hardware pre-attached, it arrives as a ready-to-install assembly rather than as bare glass requiring separate hardware attachment during the fit. This streamlines the replacement process and ensures correct positioning and fitment.

    How to tell

    Check your vehicle's service history or contact your dealership service department with your registration number. They can confirm whether your glass comes with pre-fitted hardware as standard. Visually, pre-fitted hardware appears as clips or brackets already bonded or attached to the glass edges before it reaches the fitting technician.

    Replacement impact

    Glass supplied with pre-fitted hardware typically requires no additional labour to attach clips or brackets during the fit, reducing technician time at the vehicle. The hardware must be in good condition and correctly positioned for the glass to seal and function properly. If hardware is damaged during removal of the old glass, replacement or repair of that hardware may be needed before the new glass can be fitted securely.

  • Clear15
    1988–2007Calibration 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. If the side glass appears colourless, your windscreen is likely clear. 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.

  • Unheated14
    1994–2026

    A rear window without heating elements — selected when the model's standard specification includes a heated rear glass option.

    What it means

    An unheated rear window is a variant specification where the rear glass does not include integrated electric heating wires. Many vehicle models offer heated rear glass as standard or as an option to demist the window quickly in cold or wet conditions. An unheated rear window omits this feature entirely. It is a cost-conscious choice and remains fully functional for visibility and weather protection — demisting simply takes longer and relies on the vehicle's cabin heating system alone.

    How to tell

    Check your vehicle's specification sheet or service documentation. If your model range lists 'heated rear window' or 'rear demister' as a standard or optional feature and your car does not have it, you have an unheated variant. You can also look at the rear window itself — a heated rear window shows a faint pattern of horizontal heating wires when you look closely at the glass. An unheated window appears completely clear with no wire pattern visible.

    Replacement impact

    Replacement glass must match your original specification. If your vehicle has an unheated rear window, the replacement must also be unheated — you cannot fit a heated variant without additional wiring and control-module work, which falls outside standard glass replacement scope. Conversely, if heated glass is standard for your model and you wish to stay unheated, confirm this choice at booking. No calibration is involved with rear-window replacement.

  • Dark Grey11
    2006–2026

    Dark grey tint on rear windows provides privacy and reduces interior heat and glare.

    What it means

    Dark grey tint, formally known as privacy glass, is a factory-applied tint created through a deep-dipping process during glass manufacture. The pigment is infused into the inner surface of the glass, darkening the rear windows (and sometimes rear doors) significantly more than the front. This reduces heat transmission, minimises glare, and obscures the interior from outside view. It's standard on the rear half of many modern vehicles.

    How to tell

    Compare the rear side windows and rear window (backlight) to the front side windows — the rear glass will be noticeably darker. Check your vehicle documents or ask your dealership service centre if you're unsure whether your car left the factory with privacy glass.

    Replacement impact

    Dark grey tinted glass must be sourced from the Original Equipment Equivalent (OEE) or dealership to ensure colour and transmission match your vehicle's existing rear glass. The tint is integral to the glass itself, not a surface coating, so aftermarket non-tinted glass will look visibly mismatched. Replacement does not require any calibration and follows standard bonded-glass cure times for rear windows.

  • Dark Green7
    2003–2026

    Dark green tint on rear and side windows is a factory colour choice, not a safety or performance feature.

    What it means

    Dark green is a factory tint applied to the glass during manufacture. It's purely aesthetic — a colour variant chosen by the vehicle designer to complement the body paint and interior trim. Unlike some tints that reduce solar heat or glare, dark green is decorative. Most vehicles have standard or light green glass; dark green is less common and typically found on specific trim levels or model years.

    How to tell

    Look at your rear and side windows from outside the car in daylight. If they appear noticeably darker or more saturated green than the front windscreen, you likely have dark green glass. You can also check your vehicle's specification sheet from the dealer or original documentation — tint colour is sometimes listed under 'glass' or 'exterior finishes'. If uncertain, ask your local dealership service centre.

    Replacement impact

    Dark green replacement glass must match the original tint colour exactly — a standard or light green windscreen will look visibly mismatched against dark green rear windows. Sourcing the correct variant can take slightly longer than standard glass, as it's less common. No calibration is involved with tinted glass itself. Fitting and cure time are unaffected.

  • Encapsulation7
    1995–2026

    Factory-bonded rubber or polymer trim means your replacement glass arrives ready to fit as one complete unit.

    What it means

    Encapsulation is a rubber or polymer gasket moulded directly onto the glass edges during manufacturing. The trim is bonded to the glass at the factory — either by injection moulding, PU robot extrusion, or adhesive bonding. When you need a replacement, the entire panel arrives with its trim already attached, so the glass and gasket are replaced together as a single unit rather than as separate components.

    How to tell

    Check your current windscreen or rear window edges. If you see a continuous rubber or polymer seal running around the perimeter that appears moulded or permanently bonded to the glass itself — rather than a separate trim clipped or screwed to the frame — your glass is encapsulated. Ask your dealer or service centre to confirm; they can also check your vehicle specification sheet.

    Replacement impact

    Encapsulated glass simplifies replacement because there's no separate trim to remove, refit, or source. The bonded gasket is replaced as part of the glass unit, which reduces installation complexity and potential leak points. Cure time and drive-away procedures remain unchanged. No additional sourcing delays — encapsulated replacements are stocked as complete assemblies by most suppliers.

  • Flat2
    2006–2026

    A flat glass panel, common on van rear quarters and fixed side panels, sourced as a separate variant from curved equivalents.

    What it means

    Flat glass refers to a side or rear panel with a plane surface rather than a curved or contoured profile. This is typical of van rear quarter glass, fixed side panels on certain commercial vehicles, and some fixed glazing on passenger cars. Flat glass is structurally simpler than curved variants and is often used where aerodynamics or design complexity is less critical. It's stocked and catalogued separately from any curved equivalent on the same vehicle, because the manufacturing process, fit tolerances, and seal requirements differ.

    How to tell

    Check your vehicle's side or rear panels visually — flat glass will have a noticeably plane surface when you look at its profile from the side. Compare it to curved windscreens or rear windows, which have obvious contour. If you're unsure, ask your vehicle's service centre or dealership parts department whether your side or rear glass is flat or curved; they can confirm from the parts diagram.

    Replacement impact

    Flat glass replacement is straightforward — no calibration is involved because flat glass carries no sensors, cameras, or electronic features. The fit process is typically faster than curved glass because the seal and adhesive application follows a flat plane. Cure time applies if the glass is bonded (e.g. fixed side panels or rear windows), but the cure chemistry is standard. Aftermarket flat glass variants are usually available alongside OEM options, so sourcing is rarely a constraint.

  • Other Hardware2
    2006–2026

    Factory-fitted brackets and mounts bonded to the glass, pre-assembled and ready to fit without sub-assembly.

    What it means

    Other Hardware refers to factory-fitted brackets, mounts, connectors, or trim pieces bonded permanently to the windscreen or other glass during manufacturing. These are integral to the vehicle's design but do not activate or control a specific feature — they simply secure or position components like sensors, trim strips, or mounting points. Unlike feature-specific hardware, these items are passive structural elements. A replacement carrying Other Hardware arrives pre-bonded and ready to install without additional assembly or modification.

    How to tell

    Check your vehicle documentation or ask your dealership service centre whether your windscreen or glass panel carries factory-bonded brackets or mounts. Visual inspection may reveal trim strips, sensor housings, or antenna mounts bonded to the edges or interior surface of the glass. Your original invoice or parts list will specify if Other Hardware is present.

    Replacement impact

    Replacement glass carrying Other Hardware must be sourced as a complete assembly — the brackets and mounts come pre-bonded from the supplier and cannot be transferred from the old glass. Installation is straightforward: the fitter removes the old glass and fits the replacement with its hardware already in place. No additional sub-assembly, bonding, or recalibration of the hardware itself is required. Fitting time is unaffected.

  • Antenna1
    1994–2001

    An 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.

  • Blue1
    1999–2010

    Blue-tinted windscreens reduce glare and heat while maintaining a subtle, modern appearance.

    What it means

    A blue tint is a light coloration applied to the windscreen glass, usually during manufacture. It reduces solar heat transmission and glare from sunlight, particularly on bright days or when driving into the sun. The tint is integral to the glass itself — not a separate film — and is chosen by the vehicle manufacturer to balance comfort, visibility, and aesthetic consistency with the vehicle's side windows and rear window. Most vehicles come with a green or blue tint as standard; the choice depends on the manufacturer's design and regional climate considerations.

    How to tell

    Check your side windows by rolling one halfway down and holding a white piece of paper behind the glass. If you see a blue tint reflected in the glass, your windscreen will have the same tint. You can also ask your vehicle's dealership or service centre to confirm the windscreen tint specification. The tint is visible when comparing the windscreen to clear glass, though it may be subtle and harder to spot on overcast days.

    Replacement impact

    Blue-tinted replacement windscreens must match the original tint to maintain visual consistency with your side and rear windows. Most replacement glass is available in the correct tint through OE (original equipment) suppliers. There is no calibration requirement related to tint. The tint does not affect fitting time, cure time, or drive-away schedules. Ensure the replacement windscreen is specified with the blue tint to avoid a mismatched appearance.

  • Bronze1
    1987–1996

    Bronze tint reduces glare and heat whilst maintaining a warm aesthetic that complements most vehicle interiors.

    What it means

    Bronze tint is a coloured coating applied to the windscreen during manufacture to reduce solar heat transmission and glare from sunlight. It's one of several standard tint options (alongside green, grey, and blue) offered by most vehicle makers. The tint doesn't impair visibility but gives the glass a warm, brownish appearance when viewed from outside. Most modern vehicles have some form of windscreen tint as standard—it's rarely a clear, untinted windscreen.

    How to tell

    Roll down a side window halfway and hold a white piece of paper behind the glass from outside. If you see a bronze or warm-brown tint in the side window, your windscreen carries the same tint. Alternatively, ask your vehicle's dealer or service centre for the original windscreen specification—they can confirm the tint colour code. Most documentation refers to it as 'bronze' or occasionally 'warm bronze'.

    Replacement impact

    When replacing a windscreen with bronze tint, the replacement glass must match the original tint specification exactly. Fitting an untinted or differently tinted windscreen will create a noticeable colour mismatch with the side windows and alter the vehicle's interior light and thermal characteristics. We confirm the exact tint code from your vehicle's records and source an OE-equivalent or OEM glass to preserve the original appearance and performance.

  • OEM Original Equipment Manufacturer1
    2011–2026

    OEM glass is manufactured by your vehicle's original maker and meets exact factory specifications.

    What it means

    OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) glass is produced by the same manufacturer that supplied your vehicle when it was built. It matches your car's original windscreen or window precisely — same optical properties, tinting, coatings, and integration with any embedded features like cameras or sensors. OEM glass is the highest specification available and carries full manufacturer traceability.

    How to tell

    Check your vehicle's service records or ask your dealership service centre whether your current glass is OEM or aftermarket. The dealership parts department can also confirm OEM availability for your specific make, model, and year. Some vehicles have OEM glass marked with manufacturer codes on the edge, though these aren't always visible after installation.

    Replacement impact

    OEM glass typically costs more than aftermarket alternatives but guarantees perfect fitment and optical performance. Lead times may be longer because OEM stock is ordered directly from the vehicle manufacturer rather than held in local distributor inventory. If your vehicle has embedded features (cameras, sensors, coatings), OEM glass ensures compatibility. Calibration requirements remain unchanged — any ADAS or sensor calibration needed depends on your specific vehicle, not on whether glass is OEM or aftermarket.

  • Open1
    2003–2007

    An opening pane with hinged hardware, typically on rear quarters or van sides.

    What it means

    An opening glass pane is a hinged or pivoting section of bodyglass designed to swing or tilt outward for ventilation or access. Commonly found on rear quarters of estates or vans, and on van side panels. Unlike fixed side windows or windscreens, opening panes are part of the vehicle's passive ventilation system and allow airflow without opening a door or window. The hinge and frame hardware are integral to the feature's function.

    How to tell

    Check your vehicle's side and rear quarter panels for hinged glass sections that swing outward. Ask your dealer or service centre whether your model includes rear quarter vents or van-side opening panels. Your handbook will list ventilation features. Opening panes are visually distinct from sliding or rolling windows — they pivot on visible hinges rather than moving vertically or horizontally.

    Replacement impact

    UKCG handles opening-pane replacement on a bespoke basis — please contact us for a quote rather than using the automated quote tool. Replacement includes the glass pane and matching hinge hardware where supplied. Fitting time is typically brief as there is no adhesive cure or calibration required. The pane is held in place by mechanical hinges and seals, so you can use the vehicle immediately after fitting.

  • Privacy1
    2011–2026

    Privacy glass is a darker tint applied to rear and side windows for passenger comfort and security.

    What it means

    Privacy glass is a factory-applied dark tint coating on the rear window and side windows (or a selection of them) to reduce visibility into the vehicle's interior. It serves two purposes: it helps protect passengers and cargo from the sun, and it provides visual security by obscuring the view of occupants and valuables from outside. The tint is integral to the glass itself — either applied during manufacture or as a permanent coating — and is not the same as an aftermarket film.

    How to tell

    Look at the rear window and rear side windows from outside the vehicle. If they appear noticeably darker than the windscreen and front side windows, the car has privacy glass. Check your vehicle documentation (handbook or service history) under 'glass specifications' or 'optional equipment', or ask your dealership service centre — they can confirm which windows have the tint applied.

    Replacement impact

    Privacy glass must be replaced with OEM (original equipment manufacturer) glass of the same tint specification. Aftermarket alternatives are available but may not match the original colour or darkness exactly. The replacement is a straightforward swap with no calibration implications. Availability is standard for mainstream models; lead time may be slightly longer for less common variants or older vehicles.
