Vauxhall Tigra rear window price, by year
Tigra rear-window pricing is driven primarily by the encapsulated gasket design, which requires the entire sealed panel to be replaced rather than the glass alone. Sourcing availability can also influence cost, as the model is now over two decades old.

|---|---|---|---|
| 2000 | £841 — £841 | 1 variant | Price my 2000 |
| 1999 | £841 — £841 | 1 variant | Price my 1999 |

The displayed range is an indicator — the final price is produced by the quote form after you confirm your variant. Older Tigras can still be booked.

What to expect during your Vauxhall Tigra rear window replacement
Here's how your Tigra rear-window replacement works, from instant quote to drive-away.
- 1
Book an instant online quote using our guided quiz — takes about a minute and gives you an upfront price.
- 2
We match you with an approved technician in your area who stocks the encapsulated rear-panel assembly for your Tigra.
- 3
Your fitter visits (or you visit their workshop) at a time that suits you.
- 4
The shattered rear window is removed and the new encapsulated panel is fitted and sealed. A shattered rear window means broken glass is involved — your fitter will clear accessible shards during the job, but we recommend a professional interior valet afterwards for thorough detailing.
- 5
You're given a minimum drive-away time by your technician and a two-year warranty covering the replacement and its workmanship.
- 6
If any issues arise after replacement, contact us with photos and we'll arrange a remedy.
The whole job typically completes within a couple of hours, and you're covered by our standard two-year warranty.
Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your Tigra?
The Tigra's rear-window replacement is typically carried out as a mobile job at your address — no workshop visit needed. Because there's no ADAS calibration or camera equipment on these 1996–2000 models, the fitting is straightforward and your technician can complete it on your driveway.

Green1
1996–2000On the Vauxhall Tigra: fitted on every one of the 1 rear window variant we list; model years 1996–2000.
What it means
A subtle greenish tint is applied to the glass at manufacture — most owners don't notice it, but it's there to reduce heat and glare.
On your Vauxhall Tigra
Standard on the Tigra; no variation across trims.
Heated Rear Windscreen1
1996–2000On the Vauxhall Tigra: fitted on every one of the 1 rear window variant we list; model years 1996–2000.
Heated rear windscreen with integrated wires clears mist and ice when you switch on the demister.
What it means
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.
How to tell
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 impact
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.
About the Vauxhall Tigra
The Vauxhall Tigra is a compact two-seater coupé produced from 1996 to 2000, known for its fun-to-drive character and distinctive styling. Its rear window is a key design element, providing visibility whilst maintaining the car's sleek silhouette.
Rear-window glass on Tigra models features an encapsulated gasket — the rubber trim is bonded directly to the glass at the factory, so replacement arrives as a single sealed unit. This design keeps the rear panel perfectly weathertight and reduces fitting complexity.
Because the Tigra is from the pre-ADAS era, there's no camera or sensor equipment to recalibrate — your replacement is straightforward and mobile-friendly.
