Excellent service from first enquiry…
Excellent service from first enquiry through to fitting. I was sceptical at first and carried out various checks. All proved positive. 11/10. Highly recommended.

Price variation across Hi Ace models reflects the span of production generations — older models with basic clear or tinted glass are the most straightforward to replace. Newer variants with sun-strip tinting (green or blue gradient bands) or camera-bracket provisions carry different pricing, as the glass specification becomes more detailed and calibration processes may be needed.

Booking your Hi Ace windscreen replacement is a straightforward four-stage process.
Start with an online quote — answer a brief quiz about your Hi Ace's year and features to identify the exact glass variant you need. The quote takes under a minute.
Proceed to checkout and book your fitting — choose your preferred date and whether you'd like the work done at your address or at a workshop near you.
Our team runs a parts check to confirm your glass specification is in stock, then matches you with a specialist fitter in your area.
On fitting day, your fitter arrives with your replacement glass and completes the job — typically within a couple of hours including any final checks.
Your fitter confirms the minimum drive-away time before they leave, and your two-year warranty covers both the glass and the workmanship.
Throughout the process, you're supported by our booking coordinators and covered by our standard two-year warranty on all replacement glass and fitting.
Most Hi Ace windscreen replacements are carried out at your home or workplace — your fitter arrives with the glass and completes the job on your driveway or in a car park. Workshop attendance is only needed if your Hi Ace is equipped with a forward-facing camera system that requires static calibration after the glass is fitted — in that case, the entire job (replacement and calibration) happens at a workshop so calibration can be done safely in a controlled environment.

Clear windscreen glass has no tint; most cars have a slight tint as standard.
A clear windscreen contains no added tint layer. Most modern windscreens incorporate a subtle tint (typically blue, green, grey or bronze) as standard to reduce glare, provide UV protection, and improve cabin comfort. A genuinely clear windscreen is the absence of this tint. Clear glass is less common than tinted variants and is sometimes specified for aesthetic or operational reasons, though the tint difference is usually imperceptible to the naked eye.
Lower your side window halfway and hold a white piece of paper behind it. If you see a noticeable colour cast (blue, green, grey or bronze) in the side glass, your windscreen has the same tint. You can also ask your vehicle's dealership or service centre to confirm the windscreen specification in your service records.
Clear windscreen replacement uses the same installation process as any other windscreen. No special calibration or extended cure time applies. Sourcing is straightforward — clear glass is widely available as an aftermarket replacement. Installation time and drive-away restrictions follow standard windscreen replacement timings. If your vehicle has ADAS features (forward-facing camera or radar), calibration may be required after replacement depending on your specific vehicle; we confirm this when we look up your car details.
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.
The Toyota Hi Ace has been in continuous production since 1977, spanning multiple generations from the compact early models through to the spacious modern iterations. Across this long history, windscreen specifications have evolved significantly — earlier variants feature straightforward laminated glass, whilst later generations incorporate advanced tinting options and safety sensor compatibility.
From the early 2000s onwards, Toyota began fitting tinted windscreens as standard across most variants, either green or blue tint depending on the model year and specification. More recent Hi Ace models may include camera brackets for forward-facing safety systems, which affects both the glass specification and the fitting process.
