Go to a local glass shop. Providing the window isn't complicated
most can cut one for you.
Worst off go to a local plastics dealer and look at 1/4 or thicker
lexan or polycarbonate. Don't use plexiglass, it scratches far to
easily.

The window is slightly curved, but at least it isn't compound.

Hi all!
Just a follow up to my delima.
I tried to take ur advice and went on the net to do a parts search
with no luck. Then I just started calling junk yards also, with no
luck. Then I called some glass companies and told them I wanted the
cheapest rear window with tint. After talking to about 10 different
companies, I was quoted $300 with tint. (no defrost) So needless to
say, I bought it and am now waiting for my friend to paint my hardtop.
It is a "Safeguard" window, which is the same that comes OEM.
I just wanted to say thanks to you guys that tried to help me out by
telling me where to try to find used glass. But it is not possible to
find a used rear window for a hardtop.......ANYWHERE! (Not looking
forward to my phone bill)
Again, thanks.
