I've found a company and on there website they have a 'window kit'
Including rear bonded windows..

I'm looking for opinions on the choice of thickness... 3mm,4,5 or more..
Has anyone else ran plastic windows that know some info?

They also offer a more oem look with black Borders and sliding window kits and many more..
Quick shocked no one else runs this.

mine are 3mm but MSA regs say 4mm.  But if you're not racing then it doesn't matter.  I just bought a load of polycarbonate sheet from ebay

Knowing Hayesey, probably a hammer.

Quite right...hayes is the missing link between Neanderthal  and modern man.

I used a jigsaw, it's like cutting through butter with a hot knife.  Im sure a hammer came into the proceedings at some point too, I can't really remember it was years ago and I've drank too much stella since then.

Maybe we should all have a 'Stella-off' at the next G40 meet. also, its a shame they don't do the front quarters bonded too, wonder if they can custom make them.

What do you mean Justin?..
A was asked in my order wether a wanted front quarter windows or not. Av chose not !
Think it could look better and maybe keep visibility up

mine doesnt have quarter glass any more, just a full sheet of plastic but you wont really be able to make them openable like that.  I just have a slider.

And how you get ur maccy d's through that slider is beyond me..
