Alfa Romeo 147 windscreen replacement — booked online.

You don't need to know. Our online widget asks a few quick questions — make, model, year, and a couple of feature details — to narrow the variant down. Once booked, our parts check team verifies the exact specification against your VIN before the job is dispatched.

Almost always, yes, where a forward-facing camera is fitted. The technicians in our network include ADAS-calibration-certified specialists — we confirm whether your job needs a workshop or can complete on your driveway when we book.

Your replacement glass matches your original factory specification — same size, features and trim fitment as the glass the car left the factory with. It's UK-approved for the road and typically supplied by tier-1 manufacturers like Pilkington, Saint-Gobain, and AGC.

OEM-branded glass (with the vehicle-maker logo) is available on request at a higher price.

Most windscreen replacements happen at your chosen location — home, office, or car park. Some jobs are better suited to a workshop — for example, windscreens with ADAS cameras needing static calibration, or where access to power, shelter, or controlled conditions makes the work safer indoors. We let you know when we confirm your booking.

Most windscreen replacements take 45–90 minutes of the technician's time. ADAS calibration extends the technician's time on the job, but cure time runs in parallel — so it doesn't usually delay when you can drive. Your technician will confirm exact timings on the day.

Most UK comprehensive policies include glass cover, typically with an excess of £75–£100. If your insurer is on our approved list, the specialist you're matched with bills them directly and you just pay the excess.

Otherwise you can pay UK Car Glass directly and claim back from your insurer — our all-inclusive price is often lower than the excess anyway, so paying direct can work out cheaper.

Two years on workmanship defects — water leaks, wind noise, bonding failures — from the date of replacement. If the specialist's work isn't right, we arrange to put it right under the warranty process.

No. The Alfa Romeo 147 (2000–2010) does not have windscreen-mounted cameras or driver-assistance systems. Windscreen replacement is a straightforward job with no recalibration required.

Yes, if your 147 originally came fitted with a rain sensor, the replacement windscreen will include it and the sensor mechanism will be transferred by your fitter. If your model didn't have one from the factory, a retrofit isn't offered — only factory-matched glass is supplied.

Yes. Your replacement glass is matched to your factory specification, including the green tint and solar-control layer. The colour and performance will be consistent with what came on your 147 originally.

The rain sensor module itself is typically removed from the old windscreen and transferred to the new one by your fitter. This keeps costs down and ensures the system functions as it did before. If the sensor is damaged during removal, your fitter will advise and arrange a replacement module.
