BMW i5 Windscreen Replacement Parts

The BMW i5 (G60) launched in the UK in 2023 and is currently a single generation with no facelift yet, so windscreens from any i5 built from 2023 onwards are broadly from the same platform. That said, fitment still depends on whether your car has a heated windscreen and what ADAS camera or sensor brackets are fitted, so always confirm those details when getting a quote from a breaker. Never assume a screen will fit without checking those specifics against your registration.

All BMW i5 models produced so far sit within the same G60 generation launched in 2023, so there is no generation boundary crossed between a 2023, 2024, or 2025 car. However, windscreen fitment still hinges on whether the donor and recipient cars share the same heated-glass specification and identical ADAS camera or sensor bracket arrangement, which can vary even within a production run. Confirm the heated and ADAS bracket specs with the breaker against both registrations before buying.

Trim level alone does not determine windscreen fitment on the BMW i5 — whether you have an eDrive40, M60, or any other variant, the screen itself is not trim-specific. What does matter is whether your car has a heated windscreen and which ADAS camera or sensor brackets are present, as these differ between individual cars regardless of badge. A breaker will need your registration to confirm those details rather than just your trim name.

Yes, this is an important point — the BMW i5 is heavily equipped with ADAS technology, and the windscreen often needs to carry a specific bracket or mounting point for the forward-facing camera system. Fitting a screen without the correct bracket can leave your lane-keep assist, autonomous emergency braking, and similar systems unable to operate properly. You should confirm with the breaker that the used screen matches your exact ADAS setup by checking it against your registration, as bracket compatibility with your specific system is something the breaker needs to verify rather than something we can state as fact here.

A heated BMW i5 windscreen has a fine wire element embedded in the glass, usually visible as faint horizontal lines across the screen, and will have connectors at the edges — check the bottom corners of the glass for small electrical terminals. If you are unsure, your registration plate or the V5C will help a breaker identify the correct spec from BMW build data. Always tell the breaker whether your car has a heated screen, as fitting an unheated screen in place of a heated one means losing that functionality entirely.

The BMW i5 shares its G60 platform with the combustion-engined 5 Series (also G60), so there is potential for windscreen crossover, but this is not something to assume without checking. The key variables are still whether the screens share the same heated-glass specification and identical ADAS camera bracket arrangement, and these can differ between powertrain variants even on the same bodyshell. Ask the breaker to confirm compatibility against both registrations rather than relying on the shared platform name alone.
