DAF 96 windscreen price, by year
Pricing varies with production year and windscreen specification — earlier models without tinting or sun strips are typically the most accessible, while later variants with green tints or integrated sun strips carry slightly higher costs due to the specialised glass required. The heavy commercial vehicle market also means supply availability can differ from passenger car ranges, which may affect pricing on less common specifications.

Mobile fitting or workshop visit for your 96?
Most DAF 96 windscreen replacements can be arranged at your preferred location — your cab, a depot, or a workshop. Since the DAF 96 predates modern Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, ADAS calibration is not a factor for these vehicles.
Your fitter will assess the job on the day and confirm whether mobile fitting at your site is practical, or whether a workshop visit would be preferable depending on weather, access, and the condition of the vehicle's pinch-weld frame.
We confirm the specific answer for your vehicle when you book.

Green3
1992–2012Green 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.
Clear2
1992–1997Calibration varies by vehicleClear 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.
Green Sun Strip1
1992–1997A green-tinted band at the windscreen's top edge that reduces glare from sunlight above.
What it means
A green sun strip is a graduated tint band integrated into the windscreen's laminate at the upper edge. It filters intense sunlight and glare from above — particularly useful on motorways and in bright conditions — whilst maintaining clarity through the main viewing area below. The tint is permanent, fused into the laminate layer during manufacture, and cannot be applied or removed afterwards. Sun strips are a windscreen-only feature because they must be built into the laminate during production; side and rear glass cannot carry them as they are typically toughened rather than laminated.
How to tell
Look at the top edge of your windscreen from the inside. A sun strip appears as a distinct green-tinted gradient band that fades from darker at the very top to clear below. It is visible whether the car is parked or moving. You can also check your vehicle's specification sheet or ask your dealership or current service centre to confirm whether your windscreen includes a sun strip.
Replacement impact
The replacement windscreen must be the green sun strip variant to match your original. This is not a post-fit addition; it must be ordered as part of the glass itself. Availability is usually straightforward for current and recent models from major manufacturers, though older or less common variants may require a longer lead time. The sun strip does not affect calibration requirements or cure time — it is simply a laminate feature and does not complicate the fitting process.
About the DAF 96
The DAF 96 is a heavy commercial vehicle produced from 1992 to 2012, serving as a workhorse across European logistics and transport operations. Early models carry straightforward laminated windscreens with minimal integrated features, reflecting the cab design priorities of the 1990s and 2000s.
From the mid-2000s onwards, DAF introduced enhanced driver comfort and safety features on later variants, with some higher-specification models featuring green-tinted or sun-strip equipped windscreens to reduce glare and heat ingress in the cab. Replacement glass must match the exact tint and strip configuration of the original.
