Used windscreens vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
Also known as: windshield, wind screen.
The CX-5 runs in two main generations: the first-gen (KE body, 2012–2017) and the second-gen (KF body, 2017-onwards), and windscreens are not interchangeable across that boundary due to different body dimensions and aperture shapes. If you are unsure which generation your car is, check your V5C or give the registration to the breaker, who can confirm before you commit to a purchase. Never assume a windscreen from the other generation will fit.
This question spans the first-gen to second-gen changeover, as the KE generation ran until 2017 and the KF generation launched in 2017, meaning a 2017 car could be either body. A 2015 car is definitely KE, but you must confirm with the breaker whether the donor screen came from a KE or KF car before agreeing a sale, as the two are not interchangeable. Quote your registration to the breaker so they can match the correct generation.
Trim level does not determine windscreen fitment on the CX-5 — a screen from an SE car and one from a GT Sport on the same generation are the same glass shape. What does matter is whether the screen has heating elements or an ADAS camera bracket fitted, as these features appeared across various trim levels rather than being restricted to one trim. When sourcing a used screen, focus on matching those features to your own car rather than matching the trim name.
If your CX-5 has an ADAS system (lane-keep assist, autonomous emergency braking, or similar), the windscreen typically needs a compatible camera bracket or mounting point built into the glass, and fitting a screen without it can prevent the system from working or being properly recalibrated. Whether a specific used screen's bracket will be compatible with your car's exact ADAS setup is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration, as there are variations in bracket design. Do not assume any screen with a bracket is automatically compatible with your system.
Yes — if your original windscreen has heating elements (a heated front screen), you need a like-for-like replacement with the same feature, otherwise the heating function simply will not work. Fitting an unheated screen in place of a heated one is physically possible but means losing the heated functionality entirely. Always confirm with the breaker whether the screen they are supplying is heated or unheated before purchasing.
Within the first-gen (KE) CX-5 there was a facelift around 2015, and within the second-gen (KF) range there have been running changes, so it is worth noting the production year of both your car and the donor car when speaking to a breaker. Minor updates sometimes affect whether ADAS brackets or heating elements are present rather than changing the glass aperture itself, but whether the specific screen crosses a facelift boundary and still fits is something the breaker should verify against both registrations. Give the breaker both years so they can check compatibility properly.
