Volkswagen back glass

What comes with a Volkswagen back glass replacement.

We replace Volkswagen rear glass at homes and workplaces around Orlando, Jacksonville, Tampa, Miami and West Palm Beach in Florida and around Tucson and Phoenix in Arizona. Before we quote, we look at what’s attached to the glass.

  1. A heated rear window grid

    Volkswagen calls the defroster a heated rear window. Its own tech tip finds a dead grid line with a volt meter and repairs a few broken lines, so a defroster that quits isn’t always a reason for new glass. A shattered window is.

  2. Spoiler pieces on the GTI hatch

    On the 2015 Golf GTI, Volkswagen tapes a side spoiler to each edge of the rear window glass. A new hatch glass means moving those pieces over on fresh tape, prepped so they stay put.

  3. Liftgate glass on the SUVs

    On a Tiguan, Atlas or ID.4, the rear glass sits in the liftgate, usually with the heated grid and a wiper mount. The VIN tells us the tint and the connections.

Looking back from the rear seat through shattered back glass, the pane crazed into small cubes with a hole in its upper right and small pieces on the rear shelf, palm trees and a parking lot outside.

How it works

Shattered glass out, new back glass in.

  1. Send a photo of the back. Text a photo, call, or start online. We look up the rear glass by VIN, heated grid, wiper and trim included. Using insurance? We go over your policy and help you file your claim.

  2. Cleaned up, then fitted. At your home or work, Mon–Sat, we vacuum the broken glass out of the cargo area and the frame, move any trim over and set new OEM-quality glass.

  3. Grid tested before we leave. We plug in the heated window and any wiper lead and check that they work. Bonded glass needs time to set, so your technician tells you when it’s safe to drive.

I had a fantastic experience with Bang AutoGlass! They recently replaced the glass on my car, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. Daniela was absolutely amazing—she went above and beyond to find me an appointment as soon as possible.

What’s included

Included with every rear window replacement.

Most back glass is tempered, so one hit can turn the whole pane into small pieces that end up all over the car. It carries wiring too: the defroster grid and, on many cars, the radio antenna.

  1. OEM-quality back glass, matched by VIN

    Back glass changes with body style and trim. Your VIN tells us which pane your car came with: defroster grid, antenna lines, privacy tint, a hole for the rear wiper, a brake-light mount or a sliding center panel.

  2. Broken glass vacuumed out

    Tempered glass breaks into small cubes that land on the seats, the rear shelf and the trunk or cargo floor, and slip into the seams. We vacuum where it fell before the new glass goes in.

  3. Defroster and antenna tested

    The defroster grid and any antenna lines are printed on the replacement glass. We connect them to your car’s wiring and test them before we leave.

  4. Lifetime workmanship warranty

    Our workmanship and defects in the glass are covered for as long as you own the vehicle, including leaks, wind noise or loose trim caused by our work.

Not sure what you need? Text a photo of the back glass to (877) 350-5962, or call (877) 994-5277, answered 24/7.

Only part of my rear defroster works. Do I need new glass?

Not always. A few dead lines on an otherwise good window can often be repaired, and Volkswagen’s own tech tip covers that. We replace rear glass, so if the window is cracked or shattered, that’s our job. Send a photo and we’ll tell you which it is.

Can you replace the hatch glass on my Golf GTI?

Yes. We order the glass for your GTI by VIN, move the side spoiler pieces over where your car has them, and reconnect the heated grid and the wiper.

Is it safe to drive with the back glass broken?

Most back glass is tempered and can keep shedding small pieces. Tape plastic over the opening, keep passengers out of the cargo area, and send us a photo. We clean up the glass when we replace it.

Will insurance cover Volkswagen rear glass?

In most cases it’s a comprehensive claim. If you elected full glass coverage in Arizona, back glass can be included. Florida rear glass normally runs under comprehensive with its deductible. We go through your coverage and your share with you before anything is booked. How insurance works for auto glass.

Will the defroster work after my VW’s back glass is replaced?

Yes. The new glass comes with its heated rear window grid, which we connect and test before leaving. On a GTI hatch the side spoiler pieces move across on fresh tape, and on an SUV the wiper goes back on the liftgate glass.

Mon–Sat, 8am–6pm

Back window in pieces? We’ll clear it out and fit new glass.
