Replacement costs vary mainly by whether additional features like acoustic interlayers or heating elements are present on your specific variant. Early Starex models tend to be more straightforward; later production may include refinements. The final price depends on your exact specification, which is confirmed during the free online quote.

Book your free quote online through our widget — takes under 60 seconds and covers your Starex's exact variant.
Our team performs a parts check to confirm your windscreen spec, tint, sun strip, and any specialist features.
You're matched with an approved fitter in your area who sources the correct glass and schedules the fitting.
On the day, the fitter typically completes the job within a couple of hours, working mobile at your address or at a workshop if you prefer.
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 from the date of replacement.
Support is available throughout — contact us if you have questions at any stage.
Most Starex windscreen replacements can be fitted at your home or workplace — mobile fitting is the default. The 1998–2008 Starex does not carry forward-facing ADAS camera systems, so there's no calibration requirement after replacement. This means mobile fitting is typically the most convenient option, and your fitter can confirm the drive-away time before leaving.

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.
The Hyundai Starex is a spacious MPV that served the market from 1998 to 2008, built for families and small-fleet operators seeking practical, reliable transport. Its windscreen is a laminated safety unit with a distinctive blue sun strip across the top — a feature that must be matched exactly on replacement to maintain the glare-reduction effect.
All Starex windscreens carry a subtle green tint, which is standard factory glass for this era. The replacement glass is sourced to match your original specification, ensuring the same optical performance and aesthetic.
