GLASS SERVICES
OEM and OEE glass fitted to your exact vehicle spec, backed by a lifetime warranty*.
When windscreen repair is no longer an option, Autoboys Glass Services installs OEM or OEE automotive glass matched to your vehicle’s exact make, model, and specification. Our experienced technicians ensure accurate fitment across passenger vehicles, commercial fleets, and specialised vehicles. Every windscreen replacement is backed by a lifetime glass warranty.
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) glass is co-branded with both the glass factory and vehicle manufacturer logos. OEE (Original Equipment Equivalent) glass is made to the same standards, in the same factories, and from the same materials, branded with the glass factory logo only. OEE glass is insurer-approved, more cost-effective, and does not void your vehicle warranty under the Competition Commission Guidelines. We’ll help you choose the right option for your vehicle and policy.
Most car windscreen replacements are completed within one to two hours at an Autoboys Glass Services fitment centre, and in most cases glass is sourced and available within one business day. Mobile windscreen replacement is available at your home or office and follows the same timeframe. Where camera and sensor calibration (ADAS) is required, the vehicle will need to come in-store and additional time will be needed depending on the vehicle — our team will advise you at booking.
After fitment, the bonding adhesive needs time to cure. Driving before the safe drive-away time has lapsed can cause the windscreen to shift before it has set, leading to leaks and wind noise. Always wait for the all-clear from your technician before driving away.
Windscreen replacement costs vary depending on the vehicle make and model, type of glass (OEM vs OEE), and whether camera and sensor calibration (ADAS) is required after fitment. Get your free, transparent, no-obligation cash quote online — fully transparent pricing with no surprises.
Shatterprufe® is a registered brand of OEE alternative automotive glass supplied and fitted by glass companies. Shatterproof is a safety characteristic — it refers to the process of laminating two pieces of glass together to prevent the glass from shattering into splinters on impact.
Yes. All our automotive glass is SABS-approved, which requires a windscreen to be resistant to penetration and disintegration using a laminate — a polyvinyl plastic core bonded between two layers of glass.
Our OEM and OEE automotive glass complies with all local safety standards and most international standards, including SABS, DOT Mark, E Mark, and CCC.
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) glass is the glass used by vehicle manufacturers in the original assembly of a car. It is co-branded with both the glass factory logo and the vehicle manufacturer’s logo.
Original Equipment Equivalent (OEE) glass is alternative glass manufactured to the same standards, in the same factories, and using the same materials as OEM glass. It has been tested for fit and form, and is branded with the glass factory logo only.
No. Under the Competition Commission Guidelines for the Automotive Industry, your vehicle warranty or motor plan cannot be voided by the use of OEE glass.
Yes. All major South African insurers approve the use of OEE glass for automotive glass replacement.
Yes. OEE glass is more cost-effective than OEM co-branded glass, and many insurers cover it in full — whereas a co-payment is often required for OEM glass. Quality is not compromised: OEE glass is manufactured to the same standards and in the same facilities as OEM glass.
We offer a lifetime warranty on all glass products and a lifetime workmanship warranty where Autoboys Glass Services is found to be at fault on technical assessment.

Most windscreen replacements are completed within one to two hours at an Autoboys Glass Services fitment centre or during a mobile visit. This includes the replacement itself and the safe drive-away time required for the glass to set. Where camera and sensor calibration (ADAS) is required, the vehicle will need to come in-store and additional time will be needed — our team will advise you at booking.
Driving before the safe drive-away time has lapsed can cause the windscreen to shift position before it has set. This typically results in water leaks and wind noise, requiring the windscreen to be removed and refitted. Please wait for the all-clear from your technician before driving away.
Our technicians vacuum all broken glass from the vehicle before handover. Rear-view mirrors and any reusable stickers are re-applied where possible, and the vehicle is left clean and ready to drive.
No. You only need to be available to complete the pre and post inspections at the start and end of the job.
Yes. Autoboys Glass Services operates 130+ mobile windscreen repair and replacement vehicles across South Africa — we come to your home, office, or any convenient location.
