Hyundai i30 rear window price, by year
Prices vary with generation and feature content — earlier models without ADAS or hardware mounts are typically the most affordable to replace. Later i30s with green-tinted glass, factory hardware, and SmartSense integration carry higher calibration complexity, which affects the overall replacement cost.

What to expect during your Hyundai i30 rear window replacement
Replacing your i30's rear window takes a straightforward four-stage journey from quote to fit.
- 1
Book a quote using our online widget — takes about 60 seconds and identifies your exact variant (generation, features, glass type).
- 2
Our parts team confirms the correct toughened rear glass matches your factory spec, including any hardware mounts or tinting.
- 3
We match you with a technician near you who has availability. You choose mobile (at your address) or workshop.
- 4
Your fitter removes the shattered glass, clears accessible shards, and bonds the new rear window in place — typically 30–60 minutes of active work.
- 5
Because your rear window isn't bonded to a critical structural component like a windscreen, drive-away happens once your fitter confirms the seal is set.
- 6
A professional interior valet afterwards removes any glass particles that lodge in hard-to-reach places like seat tracks or trim channels.
Your replacement carries a two-year warranty covering workmanship and glass quality.
Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your i30?
Most i30 rear-window replacements are mobile — your fitter comes to you at home, work, or anywhere convenient. A workshop visit is only necessary if there's weather concern or difficult access at your address.
If your i30 carries SmartSense ADAS (visible on the windscreen as a front camera bracket), that affects your *windscreen* replacement, not the rear window — rear windows don't require calibration.

Green5
2007–2026Green 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.
Other Hardware5
2012–2026Factory-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.
Dark Grey3
2012–2026Dark 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.
About the Hyundai i30
The Hyundai i30 has been in continuous production since 2007, evolving through multiple generations with steady improvements to glass and cabin tech. Early models carry straightforward toughened rear windows, while later variants from the mid-2010s onwards feature green-tinted glass and factory-fitted hardware mounts.
From around 2015 onwards, Hyundai's SmartSense ADAS suite began rolling out across the range, introducing front-mounted camera systems for lane-keeping and collision avoidance. These systems are calibrated to the windscreen and require professional setup whenever the front glass is replaced — a process handled by specialists on our network using Hyundai diagnostic equipment.
