Lexus LS 400 windscreen replacement — booked online.

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.

Lexus fitted all LS 400 models with a subtle green-tinted windscreen as part of the factory specification. This tint is nearly invisible in most light but serves to reduce solar heat and glare. When you replace the windscreen, the green tint is matched automatically so your car's appearance and performance remain consistent.

The VIN notch is a small box printed or embossed along the bottom of your windscreen that displays your chassis number. It's a factory identifier and must be matched during replacement. Our parts check team ensures the correct notch specification is fitted to your LS 400.

No. The LS 400 (1995–2000) predates the Lexus Safety System+ and does not have any ADAS cameras or sensors integrated into the windscreen. Replacement is a straightforward glass-only job with no calibration required, making it one of the simpler windscreen replacements.
