Renault Megane rear window price, by year
Rear-window replacement costs vary mainly by generation and glass specification. Early Meganes without tinted or solar-control glass are the most straightforward (and typically the most affordable), while newer variants with integrated antennas, tinting, and brake-light patterns carry higher parts costs due to the extra features that must be matched exactly.
Hardware-fitted variants also command a premium because the replacement glass ships pre-mounted with its securing clips and brackets.

What to expect during your Renault Megane rear window replacement
Booking your Megane rear-window replacement through UK Car Glass takes just a few minutes online.
- 1
Answer a short quiz to identify your exact Megane variant — the system takes about 60 seconds to confirm your glass specification.
- 2
Review the quote and choose your preferred fitting date and location (mobile at your address or a local workshop).
- 3
A technician from our network is matched to your job and contacts you to confirm the appointment.
- 4
On the day, your fitter removes the shattered glass, clears accessible shards, and bonds the new rear window into place.
- 5
Minimum drive-away time is confirmed before the fitter leaves — typically within a couple of hours, depending on the adhesive product used.
- 6
Your replacement comes with a two-year warranty covering workmanship and glass quality. For a thorough interior clean after rear-window replacement, we recommend booking a professional valet afterwards — glass shards can work into places fitters can't always reach on the day.
Two years of warranty cover gives you peace of mind from the moment your new glass is fitted.
Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your Megane?
Most Renault Megane rear-window replacements are carried out mobile at your address by technicians on our network. Because the Megane does not typically require post-replacement ADAS calibration (ADAS adoption on the Megane has been limited), mobile fitting is straightforward for the vast majority of variants.
If weather, site access, or your personal preference makes a workshop visit easier, your fitter can arrange this when you book. The standard service uses mobile fitting unless you request otherwise.
We confirm the specific answer for your vehicle when you book.

Green12
1995–2026Green tint reduces glare and improves visual comfort by filtering certain light wavelengths.
What it means
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.
How to tell
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.
Replacement impact
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.
Antenna7
2008–2026An aerial laminated into the windscreen or rear window restores radio, DAB or TV reception without a roof-mounted mast.
What it means
An antenna is a conductive print laminated into the glass during manufacture, typically used for radio, DAB (digital audio broadcasting) or television reception. It replaces the traditional roof-mounted aerial mast found on older vehicles. The antenna is integrated into the glass interlayer and connected to the vehicle's receiver unit via a connector embedded in the glass edge. This design offers a cleaner aesthetic, reduces wind noise, and eliminates the vulnerability of a protruding mast to damage or theft.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's roof — if there is no visible aerial mast, your car likely has a laminated antenna. You can also ask your dealer or service centre whether your windscreen or rear window carries an antenna print. The connector may be visible on the glass edge or inside the door frame trim.
Replacement impact
When replacing glass with a laminated antenna, the replacement must carry the matching antenna print and connector to restore reception immediately on fitting. Aftermarket or original-equipment glass with the correct antenna specification is essential; a plain replacement will leave you without radio or DAB signal. Our fitters verify the antenna specification during booking and source the correct variant before the appointment.
Solar Control6
1995–2026Solar control glass absorbs infrared rays to reduce heat and improve cabin comfort.
What it means
Solar control is a coating applied to the windscreen that absorbs the sun's infrared radiation rather than allowing it to pass through into the cabin. This reduces solar heat gain, helping to keep the interior cooler and more comfortable, particularly in warm weather or direct sunlight. The coating is transparent to visible light, so it doesn't darken the windscreen or affect visibility. It's a passive thermal management feature that works continuously whenever the sun is shining on the glass.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's specification sheet or contact your dealership service centre to confirm whether solar control glass is fitted. Some manufacturers list it as 'solar control windscreen', 'heat-reflective glass', or 'thermal management glass'. It's a factory-fitted feature and won't be visibly obvious from outside the car — the coating is integral to the glass itself.
Replacement impact
Solar control glass is a factory-fitted specification. When replacing the windscreen, a solar control variant must be sourced to match the original. This is a standard glass type with no special fitting implications or calibration requirements. Cure and drive-away times follow normal windscreen bonding procedures. Confirm with your fitter that the replacement glass includes solar control to maintain the original thermal performance.
Dark Green5
2004–2026Dark 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.
Brake Light3
1995–2026A brake light integrated into the rear window glass itself, requiring a matching replacement to reconnect the original lighting circuit.
What it means
A brake light integrated into the rear window glass is a lighting element built directly into the glass panel during manufacturing. Rather than using a separate lamp cluster mounted to the vehicle body, the light circuit is routed through conductive elements — typically a silkscreen pattern, wire network, or bracket assembly — embedded in or bonded to the glass itself. When you brake, this integrated light illuminates to warn following traffic. It combines functionality with design integration, reducing the number of separate components on the rear of the vehicle.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's rear window for a visible pattern of fine lines or wires running across the glass, usually near the top edge or spanning the upper portion. Look at your vehicle's manual or contact your dealer's service centre — they can confirm whether your rear window carries an integrated brake light. If you see a separate brake-light cluster mounted to the bodywork instead, your vehicle does not have this feature.
Replacement impact
The replacement rear window must carry the identical integrated brake-light pattern so the original lighting circuit reconnects without modification. The conductive elements — whether silkscreen, wiring, or bracket fittings — must align precisely with the vehicle's electrical connections. Using a standard rear window without this pattern would disable the brake light. We source the correct OE-specification glass to ensure a seamless fit and restore full functionality.
Fitting Hardware2
1995–2009Pre-fitted clips and brackets that secure the glass to your vehicle, supplied ready to bond as a complete unit.
What it means
Fitting hardware comprises the clips, brackets, mouldings and adhesive retention components that hold the glass securely in place on your vehicle's frame. When your replacement glass is supplied with fitting hardware pre-attached, it arrives as a ready-to-install assembly rather than as bare glass requiring separate hardware attachment during the fit. This streamlines the replacement process and ensures correct positioning and fitment.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's service history or contact your dealership service department with your registration number. They can confirm whether your glass comes with pre-fitted hardware as standard. Visually, pre-fitted hardware appears as clips or brackets already bonded or attached to the glass edges before it reaches the fitting technician.
Replacement impact
Glass supplied with pre-fitted hardware typically requires no additional labour to attach clips or brackets during the fit, reducing technician time at the vehicle. The hardware must be in good condition and correctly positioned for the glass to seal and function properly. If hardware is damaged during removal of the old glass, replacement or repair of that hardware may be needed before the new glass can be fitted securely.
Open1
2003–2009An opening pane with hinged hardware, typically on rear quarters or van sides.
What it means
An opening glass pane is a hinged or pivoting section of bodyglass designed to swing or tilt outward for ventilation or access. Commonly found on rear quarters of estates or vans, and on van side panels. Unlike fixed side windows or windscreens, opening panes are part of the vehicle's passive ventilation system and allow airflow without opening a door or window. The hinge and frame hardware are integral to the feature's function.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's side and rear quarter panels for hinged glass sections that swing outward. Ask your dealer or service centre whether your model includes rear quarter vents or van-side opening panels. Your handbook will list ventilation features. Opening panes are visually distinct from sliding or rolling windows — they pivot on visible hinges rather than moving vertically or horizontally.
Replacement impact
UKCG handles opening-pane replacement on a bespoke basis — please contact us for a quote rather than using the automated quote tool. Replacement includes the glass pane and matching hinge hardware where supplied. Fitting time is typically brief as there is no adhesive cure or calibration required. The pane is held in place by mechanical hinges and seals, so you can use the vehicle immediately after fitting.
About the Renault Megane
The Renault Megane has been in continuous production since 1995, evolving through five generations with significant changes in glass specification across the range.
Earlier models carry straightforward toughened rear windows, while later variants from the 2010s onwards feature green-tinted glass, integrated antenna prints for DAB reception, and solar-control coatings on some higher trims. A minority of recent models also carry brake-light integration within the rear window itself.
Renault's ADAS adoption hasn't been extensively documented for the Megane, so camera-equipped windscreens are less common than on rival marques — most variants in the current catalogue do not require post-replacement calibration.
