Price varies mainly between the two active variants in our catalogue — primarily driven by whether the rain sensor option is fitted. Models with rain-sensor capability typically cost slightly more because the replacement windscreen must accommodate the sensor bracket and wiring integration. Both variants share the same blue sun strip and green tint, so the core glass specification is consistent.

Booking your Tacuma windscreen replacement through UKCG is straightforward and takes just a couple of minutes online.
Start with our quick online quote tool — answer a few questions about your model year and options to identify your exact variant.
Our parts team confirms your windscreen specification matches your car's factory build, checking for the blue sun strip, green tint, and rain-sensor bracket if fitted.
You'll be matched with a local technician from our network of approved fitters.
On the day, your fitter arrives with your replacement windscreen and completes the job — typically 45–90 minutes of hands-on time, depending on your vehicle's age and condition.
Your fitter confirms the minimum drive-away time before you leave — usually a few hours for the adhesive to set.
You're covered by a two-year warranty on workmanship and glass quality.
Once booked, you'll have regular updates and can contact us if you have any questions before the appointment.
Most Tacuma windscreen replacements are carried out as a mobile visit at your home or workplace — the technician brings the glass and completes the job on-site. Because the Tacuma is a pre-ADAS model, there is no camera calibration required after replacement, so a workshop visit is not necessary unless you prefer one or your local fitter recommends it for weather or access reasons.

A blue-tinted gradient band across the top of your windscreen that reduces glare without affecting your view of the road.
A blue sun strip is a tinted gradient band built into the upper edge of your windscreen's laminate layer. It reduces glare from sunlight reflecting off the road and bonnet without darkening your main field of vision. The tint is created during manufacture as part of the glass laminate itself — it cannot be added or removed later. Sun strips are a windscreen-only feature; rear and side windows cannot carry this effect because they use tempered rather than laminated glass.
Look at the top of your windscreen from inside the car — you'll see a distinct blue-tinted band running horizontally across the upper portion. Check your vehicle's specification sheet or ask your dealership service centre whether your windscreen is listed as a 'blue sun strip' or 'tinted sun strip' variant. Your invoice or parts manual will confirm it.
When replacing a windscreen with a blue sun strip, the replacement must be the sun-strip variant — a standard plain windscreen will not replicate the tinted band. Your replacement glass is sourced as an exact match to your original specification. There are no additional calibration or cure implications beyond a standard windscreen replacement. Fitting and drive-away times remain unchanged.
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.
Your wipers automatically activate when rain falls on the windscreen.
A rain sensor is a device mounted on or behind the windscreen that detects moisture and triggers the wiper system automatically. The sensor uses infrared light to measure water droplets on the glass surface and signals the vehicle's electrical system to engage the wipers without driver input. This feature improves safety in sudden downpours and reduces driver workload in variable weather conditions.
Check your windscreen for a small sensor unit, usually mounted near the top centre behind the glass or at the base of the mirror. Look for a small dark component or lens. If your vehicle has automatic wipers that activate without you toggling the stalk, you have a rain sensor. Ask your dealer or service centre to confirm; they can check your vehicle records or wiper module settings.
Rain sensors are non-structural elements and do not require recalibration after windscreen replacement. The sensor bracket or mounting may need careful removal and reinstallation to ensure it sits correctly behind the new glass. If the sensor itself is damaged during removal, a replacement unit may be needed. Your fitter will confirm the condition and refit or replace the sensor as part of the standard replacement procedure.
The Daewoo Tacuma was produced from 2001 to 2005 as a compact multi-purpose vehicle, built on the V Platform shared across Daewoo's range during that era. All Tacuma windscreens feature a blue sun strip — a tinted gradient band across the top that reduces glare without affecting your main field of view — and a green tint, which is a subtle colouration present in the glass itself.
Some variants are equipped with a rain sensor that automatically activates your wipers when it detects moisture on the windscreen. As a pre-ADAS model, the Tacuma does not require windscreen camera calibration after replacement, making the job straightforward and quick.
