Prices vary primarily by generation and tint specification. Earlier Carina models without tinted glass tend to be the most straightforward and affordable replacements. Later-generation cars, particularly those with blue or green-tinted rear glass, may carry a slight premium owing to the tint matching required.

Our parts team confirms the correct rear-window glass matches your factory specification.
An approved fitter attends on your chosen date — mobile at your address or at a workshop if you prefer.
The fitter removes the shattered glass and fits your replacement, typically in 30–60 minutes of their time.
After fitting, we recommend a professional interior valet to clear any fine glass shards that may lodge in hard-to-reach places, then enjoy your Carina with a clear rear view.
Your replacement glass carries a two-year warranty covering workmanship and glass quality.
The Toyota Carina is an older model without ADAS cameras or electronic calibration systems, so rear-window replacement is typically straightforward and can be completed mobile at your address. However, if weather is poor or you prefer a controlled workshop environment, you can always request a workshop appointment instead.

Blue-tinted windscreens reduce glare and heat while maintaining a subtle, modern appearance.
A blue tint is a light coloration applied to the windscreen glass, usually during manufacture. It reduces solar heat transmission and glare from sunlight, particularly on bright days or when driving into the sun. The tint is integral to the glass itself — not a separate film — and is chosen by the vehicle manufacturer to balance comfort, visibility, and aesthetic consistency with the vehicle's side windows and rear window. Most vehicles come with a green or blue tint as standard; the choice depends on the manufacturer's design and regional climate considerations.
Check your side windows by rolling one halfway down and holding a white piece of paper behind the glass. If you see a blue tint reflected in the glass, your windscreen will have the same tint. You can also ask your vehicle's dealership or service centre to confirm the windscreen tint specification. The tint is visible when comparing the windscreen to clear glass, though it may be subtle and harder to spot on overcast days.
Blue-tinted replacement windscreens must match the original tint to maintain visual consistency with your side and rear windows. Most replacement glass is available in the correct tint through OE (original equipment) suppliers. There is no calibration requirement related to tint. The tint does not affect fitting time, cure time, or drive-away schedules. Ensure the replacement windscreen is specified with the blue tint to avoid a mismatched appearance.
Pre-fitted clips and brackets that secure the glass to your vehicle, supplied ready to bond as a complete unit.
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.
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.
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.
Green tint reduces glare and improves visual comfort by filtering certain light wavelengths.
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.
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.
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.
The Toyota Carina was produced across four generations from 1988 to 1997, serving as a compact saloon in the European market. Rear windows evolved gradually through this period, reflecting Toyota's incremental approach to glass design.
Most Carina variants from this era carry toughened rear glass without tinting, though some higher-specification models feature subtle blue or green tints that can be difficult to spot at first glance. Because Toyota Safety Sense and formal ADAS systems weren't fitted to cars of this age, rear-window replacement is straightforward and doesn't require calibration.
