Ford Transit Custom rear window price, by year
Pricing varies with the generation and equipment level of your specific Transit Custom. Earlier models without additional hardware tend to be more straightforward, whilst later variants with factory-fitted brackets or solar-control glass may carry slightly higher costs due to the added complexity of matching your exact factory specification.

What to expect during your Ford Transit Custom rear window replacement
Booking your Transit Custom rear window replacement through UK Car Glass is straightforward.
- 1
Tell us your model year and any visible features via our quick quote tool — it takes about a minute.
- 2
We match you with an approved fitter near you and confirm the exact glass specification for your van.
- 3
Your fitter visits at a time that suits you — typically mobile at your base or workplace, though a workshop location is available if you prefer.
- 4
The job typically takes 30–60 minutes of the fitter's time. A shattered rear window means shard cleanup is part of the work, though we recommend a professional valet afterwards for thorough interior detailing, as small shards can lodge in places that aren't always accessible during the fit.
- 5
Your fitter confirms the drive-away time before leaving, and you're covered by a two-year warranty on workmanship and glass quality.
All jobs are backed by our two-year warranty and matched to your factory specification.
Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your Transit Custom?
Most Transit Custom rear window replacements can be carried out at your preferred location — home, depot, or a workshop. Because rear window replacement does not involve ADAS calibration (unlike windscreen work), there's no technical requirement for a workshop setting.
Your fitter will advise on the best location based on weather, access, and your shard cleanup needs — a workshop provides a controlled environment which can be helpful after a shattered window.
We confirm the specific answer for your vehicle when you book.

Heated Rear Windscreen6
2012–2026Heated 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.
Green5
2012–2026Green 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 Control5
2012–2026Solar 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.
Green Privacy1
2012–2026Dark 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.
About the Ford Transit Custom
The Ford Transit Custom has been a cornerstone of the UK's light commercial vehicle market since 2012, serving trades and courier services across the country. Rear windows on this model are typically toughened glass, designed to withstand the rigours of daily van use.
Most variants from 2012 onwards carry a subtle green tint and solar-control coating to reduce cabin heat and glare — features that remain consistent across generations. Some models include factory-fitted hardware bonded to the glass, which your replacement will carry as standard to ensure seamless fitment.
