The Clarus has a single active variant in our catalogue, so pricing is consistent across the range. The main factor affecting cost is glass availability — parts for this model are over 25 years old and must be sourced from specialist suppliers. Sourcing time may be longer than for more recent vehicles, but the absence of ADAS calibration keeps the fitting process straightforward.

Booking your Clarus windscreen through UK Car Glass follows a simple five-step process.
Complete the online quote in under a minute using our guided quiz — no registration number needed, just your model year and a couple of feature questions.
Review your instant quote and choose your fitting location: mobile at your address or at a local workshop.
You'll be matched with an approved fitter in your area who specialises in glass replacement.
On the day, your fitter will confirm the windscreen matches your factory spec — blue sun strip, green tint, laminated safety glass — then fit it. Typical technician time is 45–90 minutes depending on your vehicle's condition.
Your fitter confirms the drive-away time before you leave; your replacement comes with a two-year warranty covering workmanship and glass quality.
From booking to hitting the road, most jobs complete within a couple of hours.
The Clarus windscreen can be fitted at your home or at a workshop — your choice. Because this model has no ADAS camera or calibration requirement, the fitting is straightforward and mobile replacement is perfectly suitable. The fitter works at your address, confirms the drive-away time, and you're ready to go. A workshop visit is unnecessary unless you prefer the convenience of bringing the car to them.

On the Kia Clarus: fitted on every one of the 1 windscreen variant we list; model years 1997–2000.
A blue-tinted gradient band running across the top of the windscreen that reduces glare from above without affecting the driver's main field of view.
Visible as a darker blue band along the top edge of your windscreen — a defining feature of your Clarus. Your replacement must include this detail; a plain windscreen will not match.
On the Kia Clarus: fitted on every one of the 1 windscreen variant we list; model years 1997–2000.
A subtle green tint throughout the windscreen glass, standard on this model year — it reduces glare and UV penetration.
Look carefully at the glass from an angle; the tint is understated but present across the full pane. Confirmed during the quote process to ensure an exact colour match.
The Kia Clarus was produced from 1997 to 2000 as a compact saloon for the European market, representing Kia's early push into mainstream segments. Its windscreen features a blue sun strip — a tinted gradient band across the top that reduces glare without affecting your main field of view — paired with a subtle green tint across the entire pane, characteristic of this era's glass production.
As a late-1990s model, the Clarus predates modern ADAS systems; your windscreen carries no forward-facing camera or electronic sensors. This simplifies replacement significantly — no calibration is needed after the glass is fitted. Replacement focuses on matching the factory specification for tint and sun-strip detail, ensuring the replacement performs the same optical role as the original.

The questions customers ask us most often.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
No. The Clarus (1997–2000) predates the ADAS camera systems that appeared on later Kia models. Your windscreen has no forward-facing sensors, so no calibration is required after replacement. The fitter simply ensures the new glass matches your factory spec — including the blue sun strip and green tint — and you're ready to drive.
Yes, but sourcing may take slightly longer than for more recent models. Specialists on our network have access to supplier channels for older variants.
Once sourced, the parts check confirms the windscreen matches your exact specification before fitting.
The Clarus windscreen is laminated (as all windscreens are for structural safety) but includes the blue sun strip — a distinctive feature you'll need to ensure is replicated.
It has no embedded camera, sensors, or heating elements, so replacement is simpler than on modern vehicles with driver-assistance systems.
