Price variation on the Shuma is minimal because the model year range (1998–2003) predates ADAS integration and trim-dependent glass options. All variants in our catalogue carry the same rear window specification, so pricing depends mainly on glass availability and the complexity of shard cleanup on the day.

Our parts-check team verifies the correct rear window glass for your car and confirms availability.
A local fitter arrives at your address or workshop (your choice) and removes the shattered glass, clearing accessible shards from the interior.
The new rear window is fitted and sealed; your fitter will recommend a professional valet afterwards to ensure any lodged fragments are removed.
Two-year warranty on workmanship and glass covers any issues from the replacement itself.
You're covered by a two-year warranty on both the glass and the fit, backed by our network of approved fitters across the UK.
Rear window replacement on the Shuma is mobile-friendly — your fitter can attend your address or a workshop of your choice. No ADAS calibration is required because the Shuma predates camera-equipped glass. The only consideration is shard accessibility: if you prefer thorough interior detailing after the fit, arranging a professional valet alongside the job ensures any glass fragments lodged in tight spaces are properly removed.

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 Kia Shuma was produced from 1998 to 2003 as a compact saloon, representing Kia's entry into the European market during a formative period for the brand. Glass specifications across this generation reflect early-2000s manufacturing standards, with straightforward laminated windscreens and toughened rear windows typical of the era.
Rear window replacement on the Shuma is a straightforward job — no ADAS systems or camera brackets were integrated into glass during this period. The rear glass arrives shattered; shard cleanup is a significant part of the replacement work, and small fragments can lodge in places the fitter can't always reach on the day.
