Price variation across the four 912 variants depends mainly on the complexity of the glass spec—whether an antenna is laminated into the windscreen and whether a green sun strip is present. Earlier models without these features are typically the most affordable to replace. Later variants with integrated antenna or sun-strip glass involve slightly higher sourcing costs because the glass must match the factory specification precisely.

The 912 predates modern ADAS systems, so camera calibration is not a factor in your replacement.

If you prefer a workshop environment or if weather conditions make a mobile fit impractical, your technician can arrange a workshop appointment instead.

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.
An aerial laminated into the windscreen or rear window restores radio, DAB or TV reception without a roof-mounted mast.
An antenna is a conductive print laminated into the glass during manufacture, typically used for radio, DAB (digital audio broadcasting) or television reception. It replaces the traditional roof-mounted aerial mast found on older vehicles. The antenna is integrated into the glass interlayer and connected to the vehicle's receiver unit via a connector embedded in the glass edge. This design offers a cleaner aesthetic, reduces wind noise, and eliminates the vulnerability of a protruding mast to damage or theft.
Check your vehicle's roof — if there is no visible aerial mast, your car likely has a laminated antenna. You can also ask your dealer or service centre whether your windscreen or rear window carries an antenna print. The connector may be visible on the glass edge or inside the door frame trim.
When replacing glass with a laminated antenna, the replacement must carry the matching antenna print and connector to restore reception immediately on fitting. Aftermarket or original-equipment glass with the correct antenna specification is essential; a plain replacement will leave you without radio or DAB signal. Our fitters verify the antenna specification during booking and source the correct variant before the appointment.
A green-tinted band at the windscreen's top edge that reduces glare from sunlight above.
A green sun strip is a graduated tint band integrated into the windscreen's laminate at the upper edge. It filters intense sunlight and glare from above — particularly useful on motorways and in bright conditions — whilst maintaining clarity through the main viewing area below. The tint is permanent, fused into the laminate layer during manufacture, and cannot be applied or removed afterwards. Sun strips are a windscreen-only feature because they must be built into the laminate during production; side and rear glass cannot carry them as they are typically toughened rather than laminated.
Look at the top edge of your windscreen from the inside. A sun strip appears as a distinct green-tinted gradient band that fades from darker at the very top to clear below. It is visible whether the car is parked or moving. You can also check your vehicle's specification sheet or ask your dealership or current service centre to confirm whether your windscreen includes a sun strip.
The replacement windscreen must be the green sun strip variant to match your original. This is not a post-fit addition; it must be ordered as part of the glass itself. Availability is usually straightforward for current and recent models from major manufacturers, though older or less common variants may require a longer lead time. The sun strip does not affect calibration requirements or cure time — it is simply a laminate feature and does not complicate the fitting process.
The Porsche 912 was produced from 1964 to 1989, spanning a classic era of lightweight sports-car engineering. Across its 25-year run, windscreen design evolved from simple laminated glass to variants equipped with aerials and sun-control tinting.
Early 912 models carry straightforward laminated windscreens, while later production introduced green-tinted laminated glass and, in some variants, integrated antenna elements for radio reception. The green sun strip—a gradient tint at the top of the windscreen—appears on select variants to reduce glare from above.
Because the 912 predates modern camera-based driver assistance systems, no ADAS calibration is required after replacement, making the job straightforward and mobile-friendly for most owners.
