New top - would you do plastic or glass window?

I've read the various threads on this, and since my plastic window is cracking, I decided to soon get a new top. (The Gahh types)

I was going to just replace the window, but I think I want to do the whole top because it's only a few hundred more and worth it for me.

Now the main question: Should I get a new top with a plastic window, or the glass window?

Glass window: Won't crack and probably easier to clean, but smaller visibility and trouble getting into the engine bay

Plastic window: More OEM look, more visibility, and no issue with the engine bay, plus it's cheaper. I guess it will eventually crack, but I bet you can get a good number of years out of it.

Is the top with plastic basically like the OEM one in the way it folds and allows access to the engine?
