Volvo S80 rear window price, by year
Pricing for S80 rear window replacement is straightforward, as the model carries a consistent specification across its production run. Variation depends primarily on whether the replacement glass is sourced as original-equipment or aftermarket-equivalent specification, and on the complexity of removing shards and preparing the frame.

What to expect during your Volvo S80 rear window replacement
Rear window replacement follows a clear sequence from quote through to handover.
- 1
Book your quote online in about a minute — the widget will confirm your S80 variant and glass specification.
- 2
Our parts-check team verifies the exact brake-light and antenna configuration for your model year.
- 3
You're matched with an approved fitter in your area who stocks or can source your replacement glass.
- 4
On fitting day, expect typically 30–60 minutes of active work as the fitter removes the shattered glass, clears accessible shards, and bonds the new window into place.
- 5
A shattered rear window leaves small shards in places that are hard to reach — we recommend a professional interior valet afterwards for thorough detailing.
- 6
Your fitter will confirm the drive-away time before finishing; you'll have a two-year warranty on the workmanship and glass quality.
From quote to fit, the whole process is designed to be straightforward — you're in control of timing, and the specialists on our network handle the technical detail.
Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your S80?
Most S80 rear window replacements are completed mobile at your address — the fitter arrives with the glass, removes the shattered original, and bonds the new window in place. No ADAS calibration is involved on this model, so workshop fitting is optional unless you prefer it for convenience or weather.
We confirm the specific answer for your vehicle when you book.

Antenna1
1999–2006An aerial laminated into the windscreen or rear window restores radio, DAB or TV reception without a roof-mounted mast.
What it means
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.
How to tell
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.
Replacement impact
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.
Brake Light1
1999–2006A brake light integrated into the rear window glass itself, requiring a matching replacement to reconnect the original lighting circuit.
What it means
A brake light integrated into the rear window glass is a lighting element built directly into the glass panel during manufacturing. Rather than using a separate lamp cluster mounted to the vehicle body, the light circuit is routed through conductive elements — typically a silkscreen pattern, wire network, or bracket assembly — embedded in or bonded to the glass itself. When you brake, this integrated light illuminates to warn following traffic. It combines functionality with design integration, reducing the number of separate components on the rear of the vehicle.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's rear window for a visible pattern of fine lines or wires running across the glass, usually near the top edge or spanning the upper portion. Look at your vehicle's manual or contact your dealer's service centre — they can confirm whether your rear window carries an integrated brake light. If you see a separate brake-light cluster mounted to the bodywork instead, your vehicle does not have this feature.
Replacement impact
The replacement rear window must carry the identical integrated brake-light pattern so the original lighting circuit reconnects without modification. The conductive elements — whether silkscreen, wiring, or bracket fittings — must align precisely with the vehicle's electrical connections. Using a standard rear window without this pattern would disable the brake light. We source the correct OE-specification glass to ensure a seamless fit and restore full functionality.
Green1
1999–2006Green tint reduces glare and improves visual comfort by filtering certain light wavelengths.
What it means
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.
How to tell
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.
Replacement impact
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 Windscreen1
1999–2006Heated 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 Volvo S80
The Volvo S80 was in continuous production from 1999 to 2006, establishing itself as a flagship executive saloon combining safety engineering with Scandinavian design. Rear windows on all variants are toughened glass — a standard specification across the model range.
The S80's rear window integrates a brake light circuit and an antenna for radio reception, both of which must be matched on replacement so the electrical connections restore cleanly. These features are present across all active variants in our catalogue, meaning your replacement glass will carry the same integrated components.
