Mercedes Econic 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.

Mercedes-Benz ADAS calibration after windscreen replacement is a specialist procedure that requires certified technicians and precise factory-spec tools. Some calibrations can be done mobile, but static camera calibration — used on many newer Econics — requires a workshop with target boards and a controlled environment to verify accuracy.

This is a safety-critical step: the camera feeds lane markings, traffic signs, and pedestrian detection to your vehicle's steering and collision systems. We schedule the full job (replacement + calibration) in one place to keep you safe and ensure calibration actually happens.

Yes — if your Econic's windscreen includes a green sun strip (the gradient tint at the top), the replacement glass must be the exact variant to match. Our parts-check team confirms this during the quote process so there's no mismatch on the day.

Technician time typically runs 45–90 minutes, depending on your vehicle's condition and whether camera calibration is involved. If calibration is needed, it runs in parallel with the adhesive cure, so it doesn't extend your drive-away time — your fitter confirms the minimum wait time before you leave.

No — your two-year warranty covers both the glass and the workmanship, including any calibration. We run a diagnostic scan before and after calibration to document your vehicle's status, so pre-existing sensor issues can't be mistaken for ADAS-related warranty claims.
