Prices vary based on the generation and optional trim features on your specific Legacy. Early-to-mid production models without encapsulation are generally more affordable, while later variants with factory-fitted rubber gaskets or tinted glass carry slightly higher costs.
Generation differences account for most variation — newer Legacies may have different fitment hardware or gasket styles, which the technician you're matched with sources to match your original spec.

Rear-window replacement is straightforward but involves shard cleanup — here's how the process works.
Complete a quick online quote using our widget — takes about a minute and confirms your Legacy's exact rear-window variant.
Our parts team reviews your vehicle's specification to ensure the replacement glass matches your factory trim, including any tinting or encapsulation.
You're matched with a local specialist who sources the glass and schedules a fitting slot that suits your availability.
On the day, the specialist removes the shattered rear window and fits your replacement. A shattered rear window means shard cleanup is a significant part of the job — your fitter will remove what they can reach, but small shards can lodge in places that need deeper access.
We recommend a professional valet afterwards for a thorough interior clean if you want complete detailing.
Your replacement comes with a two-year warranty covering workmanship and glass quality.
Book through UK Car Glass and arrange your Legacy rear-window replacement with a trusted local specialist in your area.
Most Legacy rear-window replacements can be arranged at your home or workplace — mobile fitting is the default. However, some variants may benefit from a workshop environment if shard cleanup requires better facilities or if additional checks are needed.
Your specialist will confirm the best location when they contact you to arrange the fitting. Either way, the job typically takes 30–60 minutes of the fitter's time, depending on the vehicle and the extent of glass breakage.

On the Subaru Legacy: fitted on every one of the 3 rear window variants we list; model years 1990–2015.
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.

A subtle blue tint applied to some automotive glass — extremely difficult to spot with the naked eye.
Present on select Legacy models and higher trim levels; identified during the specialist's initial assessment.
The Subaru Legacy has been in continuous production since 1989, evolving through several generations with varying rear-window specifications. Early models through the 2000s carried straightforward toughened rear glass, while later generations introduced optional tinting and encapsulated trim as premium features.
From around 2013 onwards, Subaru began introducing its EyeSight driver-assistance suite on the Legacy and related models. Whilst EyeSight cameras are typically mounted at the windscreen, the rear window itself remains a toughened panel without built-in sensors, so replacement is straightforward compared to front-glass jobs.
