Mercedes Vaneo rear window price, by year
Pricing for Vaneo rear-window replacement varies depending on which of our active variants matches your car — specifically, whether your vehicle is fitted with green tint, dark-green tint, or solar-control coating. Vehicles with solar-control specification typically carry a higher replacement cost due to the specialised coating. Your quote will reflect the exact specification your car left the factory with.

Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your Vaneo?
Most rear-window replacements for the Vaneo can be carried out at your address via mobile fitting, as the Mercedes Vaneo does not carry ADAS systems that require post-replacement calibration.
However, you're always welcome to choose a workshop appointment if that suits you better. Your fitter will discuss the best location when confirming your booking.
We confirm the specific answer for your vehicle when you book.

Heated Rear Windscreen2
2002–2005On the Mercedes Vaneo: fitted on every one of the 2 rear window variants we list; model years 2002–2005.
Heated rear windscreen with integrated wires clears mist and ice when you switch on the demister.
What it means
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.
How to tell
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 impact
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.
Green1
2002–2005On the Mercedes Vaneo: fitted on 1 of the 2 rear window variants we list (50%); model years 2002–2005.
What it means
About 90% of the glass has a light green tint which is hard to see unless you look carefully.

This will be confirmed during the online quote process — our parts check team verifies your vehicle's exact factory specification.
Green Privacy1
2002–2005On the Mercedes Vaneo: fitted on 1 of the 2 rear window variants we list (50%); model years 2002–2005.
Dark green tint on rear and side windows is a factory colour choice, not a safety or performance feature.
What it means
Dark green is a factory tint applied to the glass during manufacture. It's purely aesthetic — a colour variant chosen by the vehicle designer to complement the body paint and interior trim. Unlike some tints that reduce solar heat or glare, dark green is decorative. Most vehicles have standard or light green glass; dark green is less common and typically found on specific trim levels or model years.
How to tell
Look at your rear and side windows from outside the car in daylight. If they appear noticeably darker or more saturated green than the front windscreen, you likely have dark green glass. You can also check your vehicle's specification sheet from the dealer or original documentation — tint colour is sometimes listed under 'glass' or 'exterior finishes'. If uncertain, ask your local dealership service centre.
Replacement impact
Dark green replacement glass must match the original tint colour exactly — a standard or light green windscreen will look visibly mismatched against dark green rear windows. Sourcing the correct variant can take slightly longer than standard glass, as it's less common. No calibration is involved with tinted glass itself. Fitting and cure time are unaffected.
Solar Control1
2002–2005On the Mercedes Vaneo: fitted on 1 of the 2 rear window variants we list (50%); model years 2002–2005.
What it means
The glass has a special coating that absorbs the sun's infrared rays, helping to reduce heat buildup inside the vehicle.
On your Mercedes Vaneo
Solar-control coating is a premium specification found on select Vaneo trims — your quote will confirm whether your vehicle has it.
About the Mercedes Vaneo
The Mercedes Vaneo was produced from 2002 to 2005 as a compact leisure activity vehicle, combining practical interior space with everyday practicality. Its rear window is typically toughened glass, designed to withstand the rigours of family use.
Variants in our catalogue carry different rear-glass specifications — some feature green or dark-green tinting as standard, whilst others include solar-control coating to reduce heat gain. Your replacement glass will match your vehicle's factory specification exactly, ensuring the same tint and performance characteristics as the original.
