    Used is the only way to get one ... shouldn't be too hard to find one out of a junker ... 2-door and 4-door are different so keep that in mind when looking.

    Rear windows are easy to find, I have 6, if you were closer, I'd give you one.

    i did try calling every automotive glass company in melbourne, fl and they all said "good luck but don't call us back" . i have a couple more things i'm going to try but if it does not work out i think i would totally be willing to drive to alabama to get one, the 12 hour trip would be totally worth it. i love the car. i'm going to try sticking a sheet of lexan in the hole tomorrow for filler until something comes up...
