DAF 45 windscreen price, by year

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.

Year Price range Quote
2001 £472 £472 Price my 2001
2000 £472 £472 Price my 2000
1999 £472 £472 Price my 1999

1996 £472 £472 Price my 1996
1995 £472 £472 Price my 1995

The displayed range is an indicator — the final price is produced by the quote form after you confirm your variant. Older 45s can still be booked.

5 stars from start to finish

I received an instant quote from UK Car Glass, £200 cheaper than a competitor for a full windscreen replacement. Booked it, technician arrived when he said he would, communication throughout was outstanding and the work done was top notch. I couldn't fault the service I received, 5 stars.

Booking on line took order and confirmed the window screen replacement for this Tuesday, arranged to travel and take time from work only to get an email today to say can not be done until next week. Terrible service (or lack of service)

Misleading pricing practice

I submitted the details of my vehicle including license plate (from which they can get the VIN) and was given a quote for a replacement windscreen with calibration and home installation. It was a good price compared to competitors and the technician would have been able to repair at home. I accepted the quote and made payment for £889.11, and waited for the confirmation of date and time of installment. 18 hours later I received a call saying that a technician would be able to come out tomorrow to install, however the price quoted was incorrect and in fact it would be £200 more expensive as they got the windscreen part number wrong. Very annoying and potentially misleading pricing practice. I told them to recredit my card and that I would look elsewhere

What to expect during your DAF 45 windscreen replacement

Replacing your DAF 45 windscreen involves a straightforward booking process followed by a mobile fit at your preferred location.

  1. 1

    Start with an instant online quote — answer a few questions about your 45 and receive pricing in under 60 seconds.

  2. 2

    Book your appointment online and confirm your location (mobile at your address or a workshop visit).

  3. 3

    Our quote system matches you with an experienced technician in your area who has worked on commercial vehicles.

  4. 4

    On the day, your fitter removes the damaged glass, prepares the frame, and fits your replacement windscreen matched to factory spec.

  5. 5

    Your fitter confirms the drive-away time before leaving — typically you can use the vehicle within a couple of hours.

  6. 6

    Your replacement is covered by a two-year warranty on workmanship and glass quality.

From quote to booking takes under two minutes, and the entire job usually completes within a couple of hours.

Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your 45?

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.

We confirm the specific answer for your vehicle when you book.

  • Clear1
    1984–2001Calibration varies by vehicle

    Clear windscreen glass has no tint; most cars have a slight tint as standard.

    What it means

    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.

    How to tell

    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.

    Replacement impact

    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.

About the DAF 45

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.
