How do I know what windscreen variant my car has?

You don't need to know. Our online widget asks a few quick questions — make, model, year, and a couple of feature details — to narrow the variant down. Once booked, our parts check team verifies the exact specification against your VIN before the job is dispatched.

Will the ADAS camera need recalibrating?

Almost always, yes, where a forward-facing camera is fitted. The technicians in our network include ADAS-calibration-certified specialists — we confirm whether your job needs a workshop or can complete on your driveway when we book.

Is the replacement glass OEM or aftermarket?

Your replacement glass matches your original factory specification — same size, features and trim fitment as the glass the car left the factory with. It's UK-approved for the road and typically supplied by tier-1 manufacturers like Pilkington, Saint-Gobain, and AGC. OEM-branded glass (with the vehicle-maker logo) is available on request at a higher price.

Can you come to my home or work?

Most windscreen replacements happen at your chosen location — home, office, or car park. Some jobs are better suited to a workshop — for example, windscreens with ADAS cameras needing static calibration, or where access to power, shelter, or controlled conditions makes the work safer indoors. We let you know when we confirm your booking.

How long does a windscreen replacement take?

Most windscreen replacements take 45–90 minutes of the technician's time. ADAS calibration extends the technician's time on the job, but cure time runs in parallel — so it doesn't usually delay when you can drive. Your technician will confirm exact timings on the day.

Does my insurance cover this?

Most UK comprehensive policies include glass cover, typically with an excess of £75–£100. If your insurer is on our approved list, the specialist you're matched with bills them directly and you just pay the excess. Otherwise you can pay UK Car Glass directly and claim back from your insurer — our all-inclusive price is often lower than the excess anyway, so paying direct can work out cheaper.

Two years on workmanship defects — water leaks, wind noise, bonding failures — from the date of replacement. If the specialist's work isn't right, we arrange to put it right under the warranty process.

Will my windscreen replacement include camera calibration?

If your XJ is fitted with the InControl Driver Assistance package (identifiable by a camera behind the windscreen near the rear-view mirror), static camera calibration is required after replacement. This is performed by your technician on the same day, usually at a workshop to ensure precision. Calibration runs in parallel with the adhesive cure process, so it doesn't extend your drive-away time compared to a non-ADAS replacement.

What's the difference between early and late XJ windscreens?

Earlier Jaguar XJs (2003–2009) typically carry straightforward laminated glass with basic features like the VIN notch and green tint. Models from around 2010 onwards introduce heated windscreens, rain sensors, and acoustic interlayers on select variants. Later models (2015+) often feature the InControl camera system for driver assistance, which means replacement glass must include a camera bracket and the job includes static calibration.

Is acoustic glass standard on all Jaguar XJs?

No. Acoustic (noise-reducing) glass is fitted to select XJ variants, particularly diesel-engined models and the electric I-PACE, where cabin noise reduction is a priority. Petrol models and lower trims may have standard laminated glass instead. Our parts check will confirm whether your XJ's replacement needs acoustic glass at the quote stage.

Can I book online if my XJ has a camera and ADAS?

Yes. Our guided widget will identify whether your XJ has the InControl camera system during the quote. When ADAS is detected, we automatically schedule your job at a workshop location where calibration equipment is available, and your technician will complete both replacement and recalibration on the same day.

Jaguar XJ windscreen price, by year

Variation in pricing reflects generation, ADAS equipment, and acoustic-glass availability. Earlier non-ADAS XJs tend to be the most affordable, while newer models with InControl cameras and heated or acoustic windscreens carry higher calibration and component costs. Diesel and electric variants sometimes include factory acoustic glass for noise reduction.

I would personally avoid

I would personally avoid. They lul you in with a complicated qualification process. Then manually re quote with a higher price. Then Kayla called me with a quote triple the online quotation immediately on the offensive trying to blame I hadn’t described my car correctly. Just a simple reg number should find the right screen, but that wasn’t the case for me. It seems they definitely have an upsell angle. Very disappointed with the confrontational call after.

Very happy with UK car glass

Very happy with UK car glass. They offered the lowest quote and an online booking service. After an initial confirmation email, I heard nothing further for a week, so I called to check that my car was still booked in for a new windscreen. I was informed that it was and they would be in touch to confirm the ETA. The team kept me informed over the weekend, the technician called and updated me again on the day, and arrived when he said he would. The screen was changed efficiently and the technician was polite and helpful. I would use the company again and recommend UK car glass to others.

What it means
A subtle tint present on approximately 90% of modern windscreens — visible when you look carefully at the top edge of the glass.
On your Jaguar XJ
Standard on all active XJ variants in our catalogue; confirmed during the quote process.
Heated Windscreen6
2003–2019
On the Jaguar XJ: fitted on every one of the 6 windscreen variants we list; model years 2003–2019.
What it means
An embedded mesh of thin wires that heat the windscreen to clear frost and improve visibility in cold weather.
On your Jaguar XJ
Standard on most XJ trims, particularly higher-specification and newer models; less common on earlier base variants.
Rain Sensor6
2003–2019No calibration after replacement
On the Jaguar XJ: fitted on every one of the 6 windscreen variants we list; model years 2003–2019; no calibration after replacement.
What it means
Automatically activates your wipers when rain is detected, without manual intervention.
On your Jaguar XJ
Fitted to most modern XJ models from the mid-2000s onwards; typical on mid-range and premium trims.
Vin Notch6
2003–2019
On the Jaguar XJ: fitted on every one of the 6 windscreen variants we list; model years 2003–2019.
What it means
A small box along the lower edge of the windscreen displaying your vehicle's chassis number (VIN).
On your Jaguar XJ
Present on all Jaguar XJ models in our system; visible on inspection or confirmed at the parts check.
Acoustic (Noise reduction)5
2005–2019
On the Jaguar XJ: fitted on 5 of the 6 windscreen variants we list (83%); model years 2005–2019.
What it means
A specialised sound-damping interlayer between the glass sheets that reduces road and engine noise in the cabin.
On your Jaguar XJ
Look for the word 'Acoustic' or 'SoundScreen' printed in one of the corners, or a small ear symbol. Common on diesel and electric (I-PACE) variants; confirmed during your quote.
Defogging Detector3
2012–2019
On the Jaguar XJ: fitted on 3 of the 6 windscreen variants we list (50%); model years 2012–2019.
A defogging detector automatically clears condensation from your windscreen, improving visibility in damp conditions.
What it means
A defogging detector is a sensor that monitors moisture levels on the windscreen and triggers the demister system automatically when condensation builds up. It improves driver visibility and safety in damp or cold weather by preventing manual intervention. The sensor typically sits near the rear-view mirror, positioned to sense moisture accumulation on the glass surface.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's handbook or ask your dealer's service centre whether your model includes an automatic defogging or moisture-sensing demister. Look near the rear-view mirror for a small sensor unit. Some vehicles display an indicator light or message on the dashboard when the system is active.
Replacement impact
The defogging detector does not affect windscreen replacement or require recalibration after fitting. The sensor itself remains in place and continues to function once the new windscreen is installed. No additional calibration, cure time, or specialist procedures are needed.
Solar Control3
2003–2019
On the Jaguar XJ: fitted on 3 of the 6 windscreen variants we list (50%); model years 2003–2019.
Solar control glass absorbs infrared rays to reduce heat and improve cabin comfort.
What it means
Solar control is a coating applied to the windscreen that absorbs the sun's infrared radiation rather than allowing it to pass through into the cabin. This reduces solar heat gain, helping to keep the interior cooler and more comfortable, particularly in warm weather or direct sunlight. The coating is transparent to visible light, so it doesn't darken the windscreen or affect visibility. It's a passive thermal management feature that works continuously whenever the sun is shining on the glass.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's specification sheet or contact your dealership service centre to confirm whether solar control glass is fitted. Some manufacturers list it as 'solar control windscreen', 'heat-reflective glass', or 'thermal management glass'. It's a factory-fitted feature and won't be visibly obvious from outside the car — the coating is integral to the glass itself.
Replacement impact
Solar control glass is a factory-fitted specification. When replacing the windscreen, a solar control variant must be sourced to match the original. This is a standard glass type with no special fitting implications or calibration requirements. Cure and drive-away times follow normal windscreen bonding procedures. Confirm with your fitter that the replacement glass includes solar control to maintain the original thermal performance.
Light Sensor2
2012–2019
On the Jaguar XJ: fitted on 2 of the 6 windscreen variants we list (33%); model years 2012–2019.
Light sensors automatically turn your headlights on at dusk or in tunnels; the replacement windscreen must include the sensor bracket.
What it means
A light sensor is a small optical detector mounted on the windscreen or dashboard that monitors ambient light levels. When light drops below a threshold—at dusk or when entering a tunnel—it triggers your headlights to switch on automatically. This removes the need to manually operate the lights and improves safety by ensuring visibility when conditions darken suddenly. The sensor is typically mounted behind the windscreen's top edge or integrated into the interior mirror housing, where it has an unobstructed view of the sky.
How to tell
Check your vehicle's handbook or ask your dealer whether your car has automatic headlight control or 'auto lights' as a feature. If equipped, you'll see a symbol on the stalk or dashboard dial marked with a light-bulb icon or 'AUTO' setting. When you select this mode and the ambient light dims, the headlights activate without manual input. Not all cars have this feature; it's typically found on newer or higher-specification models.
Replacement impact
When replacing a windscreen on a vehicle with a light sensor, the replacement glass must include the correct sensor bracket or mounting point to preserve the auto-headlight function. The sensor itself does not require software calibration—it relies on physical positioning behind the windscreen's upper trim or within the mirror assembly. Ensuring the bracket is correctly installed during the fit is essential; if omitted, the auto-light feature will fail and cannot be restored without additional parts and labour.
Camera1
2017–2019Calibration varies by vehicle
On the Jaguar XJ: fitted on 1 of the 6 windscreen variants we list (17%); model years 2017–2019; calibration varies by vehicle.
What it means
A forward-facing ADAS camera mounted behind the windscreen supporting lane-keep assist, emergency braking, and traffic-sign recognition via the InControl Driver Assistance package.
On your Jaguar XJ
Look for one or two triangular shapes in the black frit area near the rear-view mirror. Present on higher-specification XJ models with the InControl safety package; confirmed at the quote stage.

About the Jaguar XJ

The Jaguar XJ has been a flagship saloon since 1968, evolving through several generations with increasingly sophisticated glass technology. Earlier models carry straightforward laminated windscreens, while models from the mid-2000s onwards feature rain sensors, heated glass, and acoustic interlayers on select variants.

From around 2010 onwards, higher-specification XJ models began incorporating the InControl Driver Assistance package, which includes a forward-facing windscreen camera for lane-keep assist, emergency braking, and traffic-sign recognition. Any XJ equipped with this safety suite requires camera recalibration after windscreen replacement.
