The glass
What a Subaru windscreen usually carries
Before we quote a Subaru, we work out what is actually in the glass. On current Subaru models that usually means rain sensor and acoustic glass on some models.
Behind the mirror sits a pair of cameras mounted either side of the mirror, which read distance stereoscopically, feeding EyeSight. The windscreen has to carry the right bracket and a clear optical zone in front of the lens, and the camera is recalibrated once the new glass is bonded in.
EyeSight is a stereo pair rather than a single camera, which makes both the glass specification and the recalibration less forgiving than most.
Driver assistance
EyeSight and why calibration matters
EyeSight reads the road through the windscreen, so replacing the glass moves the camera and the system has to be recalibrated rather than merely reconnected.
Subaru calls its driver-assistance package EyeSight. The part that concerns us is the camera behind the windscreen. It reads lane markings, the vehicle ahead and, on most systems, pedestrians, and it does that through the glass.
Take the old windscreen out and put a new one in, even a perfect fit, and the camera is no longer looking at the world from exactly the same angle. A few tenths of a degree at the glass becomes metres of error at a hundred metres down the road. That is why EyeSight needs recalibrating after a replacement rather than merely being reconnected.
We tell you at the quote whether your Subaru needs it and what it adds, and we arrange it as part of the job rather than sending you somewhere else afterwards.
The rest of the job
How a Subaru replacement runs, and what moves the price
The steps are the same for every vehicle we fit, so they live on the service page rather than being repeated here. The part specific to a Subaru is EyeSight: whether your build carries it decides both the glass and whether calibration is part of the job.

Questions
Subaru glass questions
Can you replace a Subaru windscreen at my home or work?
Yes, and that is how we do most Subaru jobs. We bring the glass, the urethane and the tools to the vehicle. We need room to open both front doors and somewhere reasonably sheltered if it is raining.
Does my Subaru need the camera recalibrated after a new windscreen?
Almost certainly, if it carries EyeSight. We confirm it from your build when you book and include it in the quote rather than adding it later. See windscreen replacement for how calibration fits into the job.
What decides the price of a Subaru windscreen?
On a Subaru the single biggest step is whether EyeSight is fitted, because that adds a calibration to the job as well as narrowing the glass. The build year and grade decide the rest. Our cost guide explains each factor.
Can a chip in a Subaru windscreen be repaired instead?
Often, and on a Subaru it is worth asking early: keeping the original glass means the camera behind it never moves, so there is no calibration to arrange either. See windscreen chip repair.
