How much to replace a Honda Civic windscreen in 2025

Expect to pay roughly $250–$450 in the U.S. (or £250–£400 in the U.K.) for older Honda Civics without driver-assist sensors, and about $600–$1,100 in the U.S. (or £450–£900 in the U.K.) for 2016–2025 Civics with Honda Sensing/ADAS, including calibration. OEM dealer glass can push totals above $1,000/£1,000. With comprehensive insurance, you’ll usually just pay your glass deductible—often $0 in Florida, Kentucky, and South Carolina, or £75–£150 excess in the U.K.

What drives the price

The final bill depends on parts, labor, and whether your car needs camera recalibration. Modern Civics often include Honda Sensing (lane-keeping, adaptive cruise), which requires precise ADAS recalibration after any windscreen replacement, adding cost and time.

• Model year and trim: 2016–2025 Civics commonly include Honda Sensing; earlier models often don’t.
• ADAS and sensors: Front camera, rain/light sensor, heated elements, acoustic or solar glass increase price and complexity.
• Glass type: OEM (Honda-branded) typically costs more than quality aftermarket; some insurers specify one or the other.
• Calibration: Static and/or dynamic ADAS recalibration adds roughly $150–$400 (U.S.) or £100–£250 (U.K.).
• Labor and location: Urban areas and dealership service departments tend to charge more than independent specialists.
• Mobile service and fees: On-site service may add $20–$50 (U.S.) or £15–£40 (U.K.).
• Taxes and shop supplies: Sales tax, moldings, and adhesive kits are commonly itemized.

Because of these variables, two Civics of the same year can see different quotes, especially if one has a camera/rain sensor and the other does not.

Typical price ranges by model year and region

United States (parts and labor, before insurance)

These ranges reflect common retail quotes from national and regional glass providers as of 2025; your area may vary.

• 2006–2015 Civic (no ADAS): $250–$450 for quality aftermarket glass; add $50–$100 for rain-sensor variants if equipped.
• 2016–2021 Civic with Honda Sensing: $600–$1,000 including ADAS calibration; OEM glass can run $800–$1,200+.
• 2022–2025 Civic with Honda Sensing: $650–$1,100+ including calibration; OEM often at the top of the range.
• ADAS calibration alone: Typically $150–$400 depending on static/dynamic method and shop equipment.
• Mobile service surcharge: About $20–$50; dealership service often $150–$300 more than independents.

Expect higher quotes in major metros and for dealer/OEM installations; independents with OE-equivalent glass can reduce costs while meeting safety specs.

United Kingdom (cash prices; insurance excess differs)

U.K. pricing reflects national providers and independent specialists; many comprehensive policies have a fixed glass excess.

• 2006–2015 Civic (no ADAS): £250–£400 for aftermarket glass; variants with rain sensors cost more.
• 2016–2021 Civic with Honda Sensing/ADAS: £450–£900 including recalibration; OEM glass can be £700–£1,200.
• 2022–2025 Civic with Honda Sensing: Typically £500–£950+ including recalibration; OEM near the top end.
• Glass excess on insurance: Commonly £75–£150; recalibration is usually included in a covered claim.

If you’re paying cash, ask for itemized quotes and whether calibration is on site. Insured drivers usually just pay the excess, with the rest billed directly to the insurer.

Insurance and deductibles

Most windscreen replacements fall under comprehensive coverage in the U.S. and glass cover in the U.K. Whether you pay anything out of pocket depends on your deductible/excess and local laws.

• United States: You’ll pay your comprehensive deductible unless you have a full-glass endorsement. Florida, Kentucky, and South Carolina mandate $0 deductible for windscreen claims if you carry comprehensive coverage. Some insurers in other states offer $0 “full glass” add-ons.
• Recalibration coverage: If the windscreen is covered, ADAS recalibration is typically covered too; ensure it’s itemized on the claim.
• Premium impact: Glass claims usually have less impact than collision claims, but check your insurer’s policy.
• United Kingdom: With comprehensive insurance, you usually pay a fixed glass excess (£75–£150). Claims typically don’t affect your no-claims discount as much as accident claims, depending on policy terms.

Before booking, confirm your deductible/excess and whether your provider requires you to use a preferred network shop to receive full benefits.

How to get an accurate quote and avoid surprises

Because features vary by car, the best way to lock in price is to give the shop precise information and ask targeted questions.

1. Provide your VIN and trim so the shop can identify the correct glass (camera window, acoustic, heated zones, rain sensor).
2. Ask for itemized pricing: glass, moldings, labor, calibration (static/dynamic), mobile fee, taxes.
3. Clarify OEM vs. aftermarket options and brand (e.g., AGC, PGW, Saint-Gobain); request OEM if required by lease or personal preference.
4. Confirm ADAS recalibration method and get a printout or certificate after the procedure.
5. Verify safe drive-away time (SDAT) for the urethane used, and any weather or car-wash restrictions.
6. Check warranty terms for leaks, stress cracks, wind noise, and ADAS performance.
7. If using insurance, ask whether the shop is in-network and how your deductible/excess will be handled.

Taking these steps ensures you compare like-for-like quotes and that safety-critical calibration is included and documented.

Repair vs. replacement

Not every damaged screen needs full replacement; smaller chips can often be repaired quickly and cheaply.

• Chip repair: Typically $80–$150 (U.S.) or £40–£80 (U.K.); many insurers waive or reduce cost for repairs.
• When repair is viable: Chips under about 1 inch and cracks under 6 inches outside the driver’s primary viewing area; regulations vary.
• ADAS impact: Repairs generally don’t require camera recalibration, but replacements do.

A reputable technician will advise if a repair is safe; if the damage impairs structure or sightline, replacement is the prudent choice.

Time and what to expect on the day

Modern adhesives and calibration equipment mean many jobs are completed same day.

• Installation: 60–120 minutes for removal, prep, new glass, and curing.
• Recalibration: 30–90 minutes depending on static/dynamic procedures and road-test needs.
• Aftercare: Observe the shop’s safe drive-away time; avoid slamming doors for 24 hours, remove retention tape per instructions, and defer high-pressure car washes for 48–72 hours.

Ask the shop to reattach and test your rear-view mirror, sensors, and rain/light systems before you leave, and keep the calibration report with your service records.

Bottom line

For a Honda Civic in 2025, budget $600–$1,100 in the U.S. or £450–£900 in the U.K. if your car has Honda Sensing; older, non-ADAS models typically cost much less. Insurance can reduce your out-of-pocket to your deductible/excess—and in some U.S. states and many U.K. policies, that amount is modest or zero. Always insist on itemized quotes and verified ADAS recalibration.

Summary

Replacing a Honda Civic windscreen typically costs $250–$450 (U.S.) or £250–£400 (U.K.) for older, non-ADAS models and $600–$1,100 (U.S.) or £450–£900 (U.K.) for 2016–2025 Civics with Honda Sensing, with OEM glass pushing higher. Insurance often limits your cost to the deductible/excess, with $0 glass deductibles in FL, KY, and SC. Ensure ADAS recalibration is included, ask for itemized quotes, and verify drive-away and warranty details.

How much to replace a windscreen on a Honda Civic?

from £271.74 to £902.84.

Is it cheaper to get a windshield replaced at a dealership?

Cost: Dealerships tend to be more expensive due to OEM parts and labor rates. If you’re on a budget, a shop might be a better choice. Glass Quality: OEM glass is identical to the original windshield, while aftermarket glass can vary in quality, though shops like ours use the highest quality available.

How much should I expect to pay for a new windshield?

Windshield replacement installation is typically much cheaper on an older car than on a newer one. If you’re getting an aftermarket windshield for an average older vehicle with little to no technology add-ons, you can expect to pay at least $300 to $600 when not using insurance. A luxury model typically costs more.
