DAF 45 windscreen replacement pricing is driven mainly by the age and condition of the vehicle frame — older pinch-welds (the metal edges where glass bonds) may require additional preparation if corrosion is present. Availability of OE-specification glass is generally good for this long-production model, which helps keep costs consistent.

The DAF 45 predates the advanced ADAS systems found on modern DAF trucks, so your replacement windscreen does not require camera calibration. Mobile fitting at your address is the standard option — your technician will bring all tools and materials needed. A workshop visit is available if you prefer it, but most DAF 45 windscreen jobs are completed at the customer's location.

Clear windscreen glass has no tint; most cars have a slight tint as standard.
A clear windscreen contains no added tint layer. Most modern windscreens incorporate a subtle tint (typically blue, green, grey or bronze) as standard to reduce glare, provide UV protection, and improve cabin comfort. A genuinely clear windscreen is the absence of this tint. Clear glass is less common than tinted variants and is sometimes specified for aesthetic or operational reasons, though the tint difference is usually imperceptible to the naked eye.
Lower your side window halfway and hold a white piece of paper behind it. If you see a noticeable colour cast (blue, green, grey or bronze) in the side glass, your windscreen has the same tint. You can also ask your vehicle's dealership or service centre to confirm the windscreen specification in your service records.
Clear windscreen replacement uses the same installation process as any other windscreen. No special calibration or extended cure time applies. Sourcing is straightforward — clear glass is widely available as an aftermarket replacement. Installation time and drive-away restrictions follow standard windscreen replacement timings. If your vehicle has ADAS features (forward-facing camera or radar), calibration may be required after replacement depending on your specific vehicle; we confirm this when we look up your car details.
The DAF 45 is a medium-duty commercial truck produced from 1984 to 2001, widely used across Europe for urban and regional haulage. Designed as a practical workhorse, the 45 featured a straightforward laminated windscreen typical of the era — functional glass without the electronic features found in modern heavy vehicles.
Owners of the DAF 45 will find windscreen replacement straightforward, as these vehicles predate the advanced driver assistance systems now standard on newer DAF trucks. The glass is matched to your original factory specification, and specialists on our network are experienced with commercial vehicle glazing.
