Hi Garry, if it is just the plastic that is damaged and the rest of your top is ok you can have a new window sewn in by an upholstery shop for $250-350.

Strataglass
 
I used smoked stratglass on mine. Very nice, it is used in marine applications and seems to be just a bit thinner than OEM. Requires some special care/products because it is coated - but no big deal for a p-car owner.

Cost of the material is very little, the expense is sewing it in and it should be done by a pro with the right equipment. I went to an auto/boat specialist.

Where do you live in SA?

I've got good friends all over your country.
