FIAT 500L rear window price, by year
Pricing varies based on your 500L's generation and trim specification. Earlier models with standard clear or lightly-tinted rear windows are typically more affordable, whilst variants with solar-control or acoustic-interlayer glass carry higher material costs. Calibration, if your windscreen replacement requires ADAS recalibration, does not extend drive-away time but may influence whether the job is scheduled at a workshop or mobile.

What to expect during your FIAT 500L rear window replacement
Rear-window replacement follows a straightforward journey from quote to fit.
- 1
Book your instant quote through our online widget in about a minute — it identifies your exact 500L variant and confirms rear-window availability.
- 2
Our parts-check team verifies the glass specification matches your factory original after you've booked.
- 3
You're matched with an approved technician in your area who sources and fits the glass.
- 4
On fitting day, the specialist arrives at your chosen location (home or workshop), removes the shattered original, and installs your replacement — typically 30–60 minutes of their time.
- 5
A shattered rear window means shard cleanup is part of the job. Your fitter will remove glass from accessible areas, but small shards can lodge in places like under seats or in trim channels. We recommend a professional valet afterwards for a thorough interior clean.
- 6
Your fitter confirms the minimum drive-away time before leaving, and your two-year warranty covers workmanship and glass quality from that date.
The entire process, from booking to driving away, typically completes within a couple of hours.
Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your 500L?
Most 500L rear-window replacements are fitted mobile at your home or workplace — the glass is straightforward and doesn't require ADAS recalibration. However, if your 500L is a 2020+ model with Co-Driver ADAS and your quote includes windscreen replacement alongside the rear window, your windscreen may need calibration, which could mean the whole job is scheduled at a workshop instead.
Our no-split rule keeps the job at one location so calibration — if needed — is completed before you drive away. Your approved technician will confirm the arrangement when you book.

Heated Rear Windscreen2
2012–2022Heated 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.
Green1
2012–2022Green 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.
Green Privacy1
2012–2022Dark 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.
Solar Control1
2012–2022Solar 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 FIAT 500L
The Fiat 500L has been in production since 2012, offering a practical family MPV with evolving glass specifications across its decade-long run.
Earlier models carry straightforward toughened rear windows, whilst variants from around 2015 onwards may feature tinted glass — typically a subtle green tint — and some premium-spec examples include solar-control rear windows to reduce heat buildup.
From 2020 onwards, Fiat's Co-Driver ADAS suite introduces forward-facing cameras on certain variants, meaning windscreen replacement may require recalibration, though rear-window jobs remain straightforward.
