Pricing varies mainly with whether the rear window carries integrated features such as a brake light or solar-control coating, as these require an exact factory-spec match. Variants with both features typically cost more than simpler clear-glass options because the replacement must replicate the original's silkscreen and tint specification.

We match you with a local approved fitter in your area who sources glass matched to your factory specification.
On the day, your fitter removes the shattered rear window and clears accessible glass shards from inside the car. A shattered rear window produces many small fragments that can lodge under seats and in trim channels, so we recommend a professional valet afterwards for a thorough interior clean.
Your fitter bonds the replacement glass into place. The adhesive cure time varies by product and weather; your fitter will confirm your minimum drive-away time before leaving.
You're covered by a two-year warranty on workmanship and glass quality — contact UKCG if any concerns arise.
Your Idea is back on the road with a safe, spec-matched rear window and peace of mind.
Rear-window replacement on the Idea is almost always completed at your home or workplace via our mobile service — no ADAS calibration is required, and the fitting is straightforward. If weather conditions are poor or access is difficult, your fitter may suggest a workshop appointment instead, but mobile fitting is the standard.
Because a shattered rear window produces glass shards that can lodge in hard-to-reach places, plan a professional interior valet after the fitting to ensure thorough detailing.

A brake light integrated into the rear window glass itself, requiring a matching replacement to reconnect the original lighting circuit.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Solar control glass absorbs infrared rays to reduce heat and improve cabin comfort.
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.
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.
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.
The Fiat Idea is a compact MPV produced from 2003 to 2016, offering practical family motoring across a single generation with minor facelifts. Its rear window is typically toughened glass — designed to shatter into small, manageable pieces in the event of impact, which is standard for vehicles of this class and era.
Most Idea variants carry a green-tinted rear window as a factory specification, paired with integrated solar-control coating to reduce heat transmission. Some models also feature a high-level brake light integrated into the rear glass, which requires the replacement to match the original silkscreen pattern so the lighting circuit reconnects cleanly.
Because the Idea predates modern ADAS camera systems, rear-window replacement does not involve calibration work — your fitter simply removes the shattered original, clears accessible glass shards, and bonds the replacement into place.
