Pricing varies depending on whether your SLK features an encapsulated rear window and the specific year of production. Earlier models without factory-fitted gaskets tend to be more affordable, whilst later variants with integrated trim encapsulation carry slightly higher costs due to the additional manufacturing process.

We match you with an approved technician in your area and confirm a fitting appointment at a time that suits you.
On the fitting day, your technician removes the shattered rear glass and clears accessible shards — this is a major part of the job. The new encapsulated window is then bonded into place using specialist adhesive.
Your fitter will confirm the minimum drive-away time before leaving (typically a few hours, depending on the adhesive used and weather conditions).
We recommend a professional interior valet afterwards to ensure any fine glass particles lodged in trim or seat areas are fully removed.
Your replacement is covered by a two-year warranty on workmanship and glass quality.
Rear window replacement on the SLK is typically carried out as a mobile fitting at your address — your approved technician brings the tools and adhesive needed to complete the job. Mobile fitting is the default for all standard bookings and offers convenience without compromising quality.
If you prefer a workshop environment or if your location isn't accessible for a mobile visit, simply let us know at booking and we'll arrange a workshop appointment instead.

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 Mercedes-Benz SLK is a two-seater convertible produced from 1996 to 2004, celebrated for its innovative retractable hardtop and compact sporting design. Early models featured straightforward toughened rear glass with a standard green tint — typical of the era.
As the model evolved through the late 1990s and into the 2000s, rear windows remained toughened, but encapsulation (a pre-fitted rubber gasket bonded to the glass edges at the factory) became the standard fitment. This means your replacement arrives as a complete sealed unit, simplifying the fit and improving the door seal.
