BMW 7 Series Windscreen Replacement Parts

The BMW 7 Series has run through several well-established generations: the E38 (1994–2001), E65/E66 (2001–2008), F01/F02 (2008–2015), G11/G12 (2015–2022), and the current G70 (2022–present). Each generation uses a completely different windscreen, so getting the right generation is the first and most important step. Quote requests on Findapart should include your registration so the breaker can confirm the exact platform.

Both the 2010 and 2014 7 Series fall within the F01/F02 generation (2008–2015), so there is a reasonable chance the glass itself is compatible, but you must check whether both cars have the same ADAS camera bracket and heating element specification before assuming they will swap directly. The F01/F02 generation saw increasing fitment of front-camera systems and heated windscreens over its life, meaning a 2010 car and a 2014 car may differ on these points even though they share a platform. Confirm the specific bracket and heating configuration with the breaker against your registration.

Trim level — whether SE, Sport, M Sport, or any other specification — does not affect which windscreen fits your BMW 7 Series. What actually matters is the generation/platform, whether your car has a heated windscreen, and whether it has an ADAS camera or sensor bracket mounted to the glass. You may find minor cosmetic differences such as tinting shade between screens pulled from different-spec cars, but these do not affect fitment, and any trim label should be set aside when sourcing the part.

Yes — if your car has a rain sensor, ADAS camera, or lane-departure system, you need a windscreen with the correct bracket or aperture to support it; fitting a plain screen to a car with these systems will mean they do not function correctly. Whether a specific used screen's bracket is compatible with your car's particular ADAS setup is something you should confirm directly with the breaker against your registration, as there are variations that are difficult to verify without checking the exact part. Do not assume any screen with a bracket fitted will work with your system without that check.

No — the E65/E66 and the F01/F02 are completely different platforms and their windscreens are not interchangeable. This generation boundary (2008) is a hard cut-off, and no cross-generation fitting should be assumed. Always source a screen from the correct generation and confirm full specification details with the breaker.

Have your registration number to hand, as this lets the breaker confirm the exact platform and build spec quickly. You should also know whether your current windscreen has a heating element (look for fine wires across the glass) and whether there is a camera or sensor bracket mounted near the rear-view mirror. These details — generation, heated or unheated, and ADAS bracket presence — are the key fitment factors, and providing them upfront will help the breaker match the right screen to your car.
