Pricing for Rexton rear-window replacement varies primarily by generation and whether your variant includes an openable rear quarter. Simpler variants without opening glass tend to be more affordable, while models with the opening-quarter feature involve additional hardware and fitting complexity.
Generation differences also influence cost — earlier 2002–2003 models are generally more straightforward to source and fit compared to later variants.
| Year | Price range | Variants | Quote |

| 2003 | £405 — £405 | 1 variant | Price my 2003 |
| 2002 | £405 — £405 | 1 variant | Price my 2002 |
The displayed range is an indicator — the final price is produced by the quote form after you confirm your variant. Older Rextons can still be booked.

Our team carries out a parts check to confirm your exact glass specification, including any opening-quarter hardware.
You'll be matched with an approved fitter in your area who will schedule the replacement at your address or a workshop location.
On fitting day, your technician removes the shattered rear window, clears accessible glass shards, and installs your replacement with its fitting hardware.
After the job, a professional valet is recommended to remove any small glass fragments that may lodge in seat areas or trim — a normal part of rear-window replacement.
Your replacement comes with a two-year warranty covering workmanship and glass quality.
Book now and have your Rexton back on the road with peace of mind.
Rexton rear-window replacement is typically carried out as a mobile appointment at your address, since early Rextons do not feature windscreen-mounted ADAS systems that require workshop calibration.
You can always choose a workshop visit instead if that suits your schedule better — your fitter will confirm the most convenient location when you book.

Dark grey tint on rear windows provides privacy and reduces interior heat and glare.
Dark grey tint, formally known as privacy glass, is a factory-applied tint created through a deep-dipping process during glass manufacture. The pigment is infused into the inner surface of the glass, darkening the rear windows (and sometimes rear doors) significantly more than the front. This reduces heat transmission, minimises glare, and obscures the interior from outside view. It's standard on the rear half of many modern vehicles.
Compare the rear side windows and rear window (backlight) to the front side windows — the rear glass will be noticeably darker. Check your vehicle documents or ask your dealership service centre if you're unsure whether your car left the factory with privacy glass.
Dark grey tinted glass must be sourced from the Original Equipment Equivalent (OEE) or dealership to ensure colour and transmission match your vehicle's existing rear glass. The tint is integral to the glass itself, not a surface coating, so aftermarket non-tinted glass will look visibly mismatched. Replacement does not require any calibration and follows standard bonded-glass cure times for rear windows.
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.
An opening pane with hinged hardware, typically on rear quarters or van sides.
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.
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.
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.
The SsangYong Rexton is a robust SUV that entered production in 2002, establishing itself as a capable family and commercial vehicle across multiple generations.
Rexton rear windows are typically toughened glass — designed to withstand impact — and come with pre-fitted clips and mouldings for secure installation. Some variants feature an openable rear quarter, which is included in your replacement if your model carries this option.
Early Rextons do not carry windscreen-mounted cameras or driver assistance systems, so rear-window replacement focuses on glass quality and secure fitting without calibration requirements.
