Cheap Nissan Terrano Windscreen

The Nissan Terrano sold in the UK across two main generations: the first generation (R20) ran from 1987 to 1996, and the second generation (R50) ran from 1996 to 2002. Each generation uses a completely different windscreen, so getting the right generation is the single most important thing to confirm before ordering. Always match your windscreen to your generation, not just the Terrano name.

No — 1995 falls within the first-generation R20 (1987–1996), while 1997 sits in the second-generation R50 (1996–2002), and these use entirely different screens. The generational boundary sits right around 1996, so a screen from either side of that line will not cross over. Confirm your exact generation with the breaker against your registration to make sure you're quoted the correct part.

Trim level does not affect windscreen fitment on the Terrano — a Sport or any other trim variant within the same generation uses the same glass as the base model. What does matter is whether your screen has heating elements or any ADAS camera bracket fitted, as these features determine compatibility regardless of trim. You may find minor cosmetic differences such as logo placement on a screen pulled from a different trim, but fitment itself will be the same.

Yes, a heated windscreen is a different part to an unheated one and the two are not interchangeable, so you must tell the breaker whether your original screen is heated or not. Check your dashboard for a heated windscreen switch and look at the glass itself for fine heating filaments running across it — if they're there, you need a heated replacement. Fitting an unheated screen in place of a heated one will also leave you without a working heated screen function even if the glass physically fits.

Some later Terrano models were fitted with driver assistance systems that mount a camera or sensor bracket to the windscreen, and fitting a screen without the correct bracket can affect how those systems work. Whether the bracket on a specific used screen is compatible with your exact ADAS setup is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration rather than assume. If your car has no such system, this won't be a concern, but it's worth checking before you buy.

No — the Terrano II (R50, 1996–2002) and the earlier first-generation Terrano (R20, 1987–1996) are completely different vehicles on different platforms and their windscreens do not interchange. Always specify which generation you have when contacting a breaker, and give them your registration so they can confirm the exact part needed. Mixing screens across these generations is not possible regardless of how similar the vehicles may look.
