Rear hartop side windows - perspex?

Post by nicbeer »

Has anyone replaced there side windows in the rear of a hardtop with perspex or acrylic.

I broke one of mine the other night and thinking of getting a price on monday on some plastic to replace both of them, probably in tinted variety.

cheers

I need the passenger one. I beleive they might be identical both sides. I havnt matched them up yet.

I priced some perspex today, cut out to shape and holes in it for $68. that was for 4.5mm tinted ones. As i want to get the rear in tinted anyway.

cheers
