Pricing varies mainly by whether your Ka carries an integrated brake light in the rear glass and the specific generation of your model. Earlier Ka models without these integrations are generally more straightforward to source, whilst later variants with brake-light patterns or solar-control features require matched specialist glass. The tint colour — whether standard green or darker green on rear doors — also influences availability from suppliers.

Rear-window replacement is a straightforward process from booking to completion.
Start with a quick online quote using our guided quiz — takes about a minute to confirm your Ka's year, trim, and glass features.
Once you've booked, our team carries out a parts check to confirm the exact rear-window variant needed, including any brake-light integration or tint specification.
You'll be matched with a local approved fitter who sources the correct replacement glass.
On fitting day, your fitter removes the shattered glass and fits the new rear window — typically 30–60 minutes of work. Shard cleanup is included, though small shards can lodge in places that need deeper detailing afterwards.
Your fitter confirms the drive-away time and completes a final check before you leave.
A professional valet or interior clean afterwards is recommended to catch any remaining glass fragments in hard-to-reach spots.
Your replacement is covered by a two-year warranty on workmanship and glass quality.
Most Ford Ka rear-window replacements are carried out mobile at your address, since the rear glass doesn't require ADAS calibration. Your fitter arrives with the correct glass sourced to your specification — including any brake-light integration or tint detail — and completes the job on your driveway.
A workshop visit is only necessary if your fitter needs better access to the vehicle's interior for thorough shard cleanup, or if weather conditions make mobile fitting impractical. This is discussed and agreed before the booking is confirmed.

On the Ford Ka: fitted on every one of the 4 rear window variants we list; model years 1996–2020.
Heated rear windscreen with integrated wires clears mist and ice when you switch on the demister.
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.
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 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.

A high-level brake light integrated into the rear glass, which must be matched exactly during replacement so the lighting circuit reconnects cleanly.
Confirmed during your parts check after booking. Look for a brake-light pattern when comparing your rear glass to the side windows.

A solar-control coating that absorbs infrared rays, reducing heat build-up inside the vehicle — a premium feature on select Ka variants.
Fitted to certain higher-trim Ka models from the mid-2010s onwards. Confirmed during your parts check if applicable.
The Ford Ka has been a familiar sight on UK roads since 1996, evolving through multiple generations with straightforward rear-window designs suited to its compact city-car brief.
Most Ka models carry toughened rear glass with a green tint — a subtle feature you'll notice when comparing the rear to the windscreen. Some higher-trim or later variants also carry integrated brake-light patterns in the glass, which must be matched exactly at replacement to keep the lighting circuit working correctly.
Ford's ADAS systems arrived on later Ka models, though rear-window replacement typically doesn't require calibration since cameras are mounted in the windscreen area. The main variable is whether your variant includes a brake-light integration or solar-control coating — both affect glass sourcing but not the fitting process itself.
