Pricing varies depending on whether your Omega's rear window includes solar-control glass and the complexity of the antenna integration during fitting. Variants without solar control are generally the most economical to replace; those with solar-control glass carry a moderate upcharge due to the coating technology. The integrated antenna adds calibration work but doesn't typically shift the price bracket significantly — it's accounted for in the quote.

From your initial quote through to fitting and aftercare, here's how a rear-window replacement with UKCG works.
Answer a quick quiz about your Omega's year and trim — takes about a minute — to confirm which of the three active variants matches your car.
Receive an instant quote that reflects your specific glass specification, including the antenna and any solar-control features.
Book online and choose either a mobile appointment at your address or a workshop visit, whichever suits you best.
A technician from our network of approved fitters will arrive with the replacement glass, remove the shattered rear window, and install the new one — typically 30–60 minutes of work.
Your fitter will remove as much broken glass as they can reach; we recommend a professional valet afterwards for a thorough interior clean, as shards can lodge in places that aren't accessible on the day.
You're covered by a two-year warranty on workmanship and glass quality, backed by our network.
The whole process is straightforward — book in under two minutes, and your Omega will be back on the road with a secure, weatherproof rear window.
Most Omega rear-window replacements are fitted mobile at your address — the straightforward nature of the job and the absence of ADAS calibration requirements mean there's no need to visit a workshop unless you prefer it.
Choose a workshop appointment if you'd prefer the work done in a controlled environment or if you need the vehicle kept at a garage for any reason. Either way, your fitter will confirm the drive-away time before finishing — typically no wait beyond what your specific adhesive requires.

An aerial laminated into the windscreen or rear window restores radio, DAB or TV reception without a roof-mounted mast.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Solar control glass absorbs infrared rays to reduce heat and improve cabin comfort.
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.
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.
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.
The Vauxhall Omega was produced from 1994 to 2003 across multiple generations, establishing itself as a practical family saloon and estate option for UK drivers. Rear windows on the Omega are toughened glass — standard for vehicles of this era — and arrive completely shattered when damaged, making replacement a priority to restore weatherproofing and interior protection.
Across the three active variants in our catalogue, all models feature an integrated antenna laminated into the rear window for radio reception. Two-thirds of variants also include solar-control glass, which helps reduce interior heat and UV exposure during sunny weather. These features must be matched precisely during replacement to restore the vehicle's original functionality.
