Rear-window replacement costs vary based on the specific variant and whether integrated features — such as antenna and brake-light functionality — need to be perfectly matched during fitting. Later models with additional integrated components may carry different pricing than earlier production variants. Glass sourced by the specialist you're matched with is verified to match your factory specification before the job begins.

Start with an instant online quote using our guided widget — takes about a minute and covers your specific variant.
A technician from our network in your area is matched to your booking, based on availability and location.
On the day of fitting, the technician arrives at your address (or workshop, if you prefer) with the replacement glass and tools.
The shattered original glass is carefully removed and accessible shards are cleaned away — though deep-seated fragments in trim channels and under seats may need a professional valet afterwards.
The new rear window is fitted, sealed, and integrated with the brake-light and antenna systems so everything reconnects cleanly.
Your technician confirms the vehicle is ready to drive and explains any care needed in the hours following.
All work is covered by a two-year warranty on workmanship and glass quality — if any issues arise, contact UKCG to arrange a remedy.
Most Model Y rear-window replacements are carried out at your home or workplace as a mobile fitting — no workshop visit needed. Your technician arrives with all tools and the replacement glass, completes the job on site, and confirms it's ready to drive. If you prefer a workshop environment or have limited access at your address, let us know at booking and we'll arrange a local workshop visit instead.

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.
The Tesla Model Y has been in production since 2020 and is now available across multiple markets with continuous refinement. The rear window is a key structural component, featuring integrated brake-light circuitry and privacy tinting that's darker than the windscreen.
Earlier Model Y variants carry straightforward rear-window glass with brake-light integration and privacy tint. Across the range, the rear window also features an antenna laminated into the glass for vehicle reception and connectivity systems.
