Pricing varies mainly by generation and tint specification. Earlier Bongos without tinted glass or sun strips sit at the lower end, whilst later models with blue or green tints carry slightly higher costs due to the precision required when sourcing the correct tint variant.
All replacements are sourced to match your factory specification and are UK-approved for the road.

Booking a Mazda Bongo windscreen replacement through UK Car Glass is a straightforward process.
Complete a quick online quote using our interactive widget — answer a few questions about your Bongo's year and features, and you'll receive an instant price indication in under 60 seconds.
Once you've decided to proceed, book your fitting at a time that suits you — most customers complete the full booking in under two minutes.
Our parts team performs a final check to confirm the exact glass variant needed for your vehicle, ensuring the tint and sun strip (if applicable) are correct.
A technician from our network is matched to your job and will contact you to arrange fitting — mobile at your address or workshop, depending on your preference and local availability.
On fitting day, the technician removes the old windscreen carefully, clears the frame, applies fresh adhesive, and sets the new glass. A non-ADAS Bongo typically takes 45–90 minutes of the fitter's time.
Your fitter will confirm the minimum drive-away time before leaving — usually a few hours depending on the adhesive product used and the weather conditions.
Your replacement windscreen comes with a two-year warranty covering workmanship and glass quality.
Most Mazda Bongo windscreen replacements are fitted mobile at your address — the technician brings all necessary tools and adhesives to your home, workplace, or roadside location.
Because the Bongo does not carry modern ADAS camera systems, there is no calibration requirement after fitting. Your fitter will confirm the vehicle is ready to drive before they leave, and you can arrange the time that suits you best.

Blue-tinted windscreens reduce glare and heat while maintaining a subtle, modern appearance.
A blue tint is a light coloration applied to the windscreen glass, usually during manufacture. It reduces solar heat transmission and glare from sunlight, particularly on bright days or when driving into the sun. The tint is integral to the glass itself — not a separate film — and is chosen by the vehicle manufacturer to balance comfort, visibility, and aesthetic consistency with the vehicle's side windows and rear window. Most vehicles come with a green or blue tint as standard; the choice depends on the manufacturer's design and regional climate considerations.
Check your side windows by rolling one halfway down and holding a white piece of paper behind the glass. If you see a blue tint reflected in the glass, your windscreen will have the same tint. You can also ask your vehicle's dealership or service centre to confirm the windscreen tint specification. The tint is visible when comparing the windscreen to clear glass, though it may be subtle and harder to spot on overcast days.
Blue-tinted replacement windscreens must match the original tint to maintain visual consistency with your side and rear windows. Most replacement glass is available in the correct tint through OE (original equipment) suppliers. There is no calibration requirement related to tint. The tint does not affect fitting time, cure time, or drive-away schedules. Ensure the replacement windscreen is specified with the blue tint to avoid a mismatched appearance.
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.
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.
The Mazda Bongo, produced from 1984 to 2000, is a compact people carrier and leisure vehicle built across two distinct generations. Early models carried straightforward laminated windscreens with minimal electronic features.
Later variants from the mid-1990s onwards saw the introduction of tinted glass options — both blue and green tints became available across the range, with some higher-spec models featuring a blue sun strip at the top of the windscreen to reduce glare from above.
Because the Bongo predates Mazda's modern i-ACTIVSENSE camera systems, windscreen replacement does not involve ADAS calibration — a straightforward fit without the complexity of newer safety-equipped models.
