Prices vary based on generation and fitment options. Earlier 1980s–1990s models tend to be the most straightforward; later variants with encapsulated trim or integrated hardware may carry slightly higher costs due to more complex bonding requirements.

Rear-window replacement follows a straightforward process from quote to fitting day.
Complete a quick online quiz to identify your 626's exact variant and year — takes about a minute.
Receive an instant quote tailored to your vehicle's rear-window specification.
Book your appointment and choose mobile fitting at your address or a workshop slot.
On fitting day, your specialist removes the shattered glass, clears accessible shards, and bonds the replacement panel into place — typically 30–60 minutes of hands-on work.
A shattered rear window means shard cleanup is part of the job; your fitter will clear what they can reach. For thorough interior detailing, we recommend a professional valet afterwards, as small shards can work into places fitters can't access on the day.
Your replacement glass is covered by a two-year warranty on workmanship and quality.
Booked in minutes, fitted by a specialist near you, and backed by our two-year guarantee.
Most rear-window jobs are fitted mobile at your address and typically take 30–60 minutes. The Mazda 626 does not require ADAS calibration, so your replacement is straightforward and can be completed at home or a workshop of your choice.
Choose workshop fitting if weather is poor or if you prefer the fitter to work in a controlled space. Either way, the process is quick and your specialist confirms the drive-away time before leaving.

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.
Blue-tinted windscreens reduce glare and heat while maintaining a subtle, modern appearance.
A blue tint is a light coloration applied to the windscreen glass, usually during manufacture. It reduces solar heat transmission and glare from sunlight, particularly on bright days or when driving into the sun. The tint is integral to the glass itself — not a separate film — and is chosen by the vehicle manufacturer to balance comfort, visibility, and aesthetic consistency with the vehicle's side windows and rear window. Most vehicles come with a green or blue tint as standard; the choice depends on the manufacturer's design and regional climate considerations.
Check your side windows by rolling one halfway down and holding a white piece of paper behind the glass. If you see a blue tint reflected in the glass, your windscreen will have the same tint. You can also ask your vehicle's dealership or service centre to confirm the windscreen tint specification. The tint is visible when comparing the windscreen to clear glass, though it may be subtle and harder to spot on overcast days.
Blue-tinted replacement windscreens must match the original tint to maintain visual consistency with your side and rear windows. Most replacement glass is available in the correct tint through OE (original equipment) suppliers. There is no calibration requirement related to tint. The tint does not affect fitting time, cure time, or drive-away schedules. Ensure the replacement windscreen is specified with the blue tint to avoid a mismatched appearance.
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.
The Mazda 626 was in continuous production from 1983 to 2002 across four generations, serving as a reliable family saloon throughout its run. Earlier models (1983–1997) carried straightforward toughened rear windows with minimal integrated features.
From the late 1990s onwards, some variants introduced encapsulated trim or integrated hardware for a cleaner fit. The 626's rear window remained largely unchanged in its basic structure, though later generations benefited from improved sealing compounds and bonding techniques.
