We replace the windscreen and recalibrate the camera behind it as one job, at your home or workplace where the procedure allows.
Registration plate or VIN. We use it to identify the correct glass and sensors for your vehicle.
Most newer vehicles have a forward camera mounted behind the windscreen. It runs safety features such as lane keeping, automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control.
When the windscreen is replaced, the camera has to be recalibrated so those features read the road correctly. We replace the windscreen and recalibrate the camera as one job.

We check whether your vehicle has a windscreen-mounted camera and include the recalibration in your quote.
Choose a time that suits. Where the calibration can be done at your location, we come to you.
Some vehicles can be calibrated at your home or workplace. Others have to be done at our Warwick Farm workshop. We tell you which when we quote.
The camera looks through the windscreen at a fixed angle. A new windscreen, even the correct one fitted properly, can shift that angle by a fraction of a degree. A hundred metres down the road, a fraction of a degree is enough to misjudge where a lane line or another vehicle is.
A camera that is out of calibration does not always show a warning light. The features can seem to work while reacting late or steering toward the wrong point.
Recalibration tells the camera exactly where it is pointing again, to the vehicle manufacturer's specification.
The vehicle stays still. Calibration targets are set up at measured distances in front of it on a level floor, and a scan tool takes the camera through the procedure.
Needs: space and controlled conditions, so it is done in a workshop.
The vehicle is driven on clearly marked roads with a scan tool connected while the camera relearns its position.
Needs: good lane markings, steady speeds and fair weather.
The vehicle manufacturer decides. Some vehicles need static calibration, some dynamic, and some both. We follow the procedure specified for your make, model and build date.
Where the procedure allows, we recalibrate at your home or workplace straight after fitting the windscreen. Vehicles that cannot be done on site are booked into our Warwick Farm workshop.
We tell you which applies when we quote, and we check the calibration has completed successfully before the vehicle goes back to you.

Google reviews from customers that mention cameras and calibration.
I highly recommend MWT (Mobile Windscreens & Tinting)! O’Brien had a waiting time of two weeks and you had to go in — but with these guys, I only waited one day and they came straight to me at my workplace! The crack in my windscreen was getting bigger by the minute, and I really…
Amazing company. My 2009 Passat CC recently suffered a cracked windscreen. I thought expensive repair. Checked online and saw good reviews of this company. Rang and talked to Scott. After a few simple questions on my car, he knew exactly what was required and gave price over the…

Calibration usually follows a windscreen replacement. Here is what goes with it.
