Rear-window replacement costs vary based on the generation of your Sonata and whether your glass includes integrated heating or antenna elements. Earlier models with standard rear glass are typically more affordable, while later variants with heated elements or antenna integration carry a premium due to the additional features requiring precise matching.
Calibration is not required for rear-window replacement, so costs are driven entirely by glass specification and fitting complexity.

Most rear-window replacements are carried out mobile at your address — the technician brings everything needed. Because rear-window fitting doesn't require ADAS calibration, workshop attendance is not mandatory.
However, if weather is poor or your location has limited access, your technician may recommend a workshop visit for a cleaner fit. Choose whichever suits you best at booking.

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.
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.
The Hyundai Sonata has been in continuous production since 1991, with multiple generational updates bringing evolving glass specifications. Earlier models from the 1990s and 2000s carry straightforward toughened rear glass, though some variants feature integrated heating elements.
From the mid-2010s onwards, later-generation Sonatas introduced more advanced rear-window options, including heated glass with integrated antenna for radio reception on certain trims. These integrated features require careful matching during replacement to ensure all functionality is preserved.
Because the Sonata's rear window is toughened glass, replacement involves managing shattered shards — a significant part of the job. Your technician will clear accessible debris, but professional interior detailing afterwards is recommended for thorough shard removal.
