QUESTION: Are two and four seat windows the same ???

If they are, I need one for each of my two and four seat hard tops I'm
rehabing.

Let me know the process to get them.

  Just for info, I had a plastic company drape form a new window over my old
original hard top window that was broken and had to be glued together to make
the copy. This was about 1980.  I just got it out of storage. Moss wants about
$630 for replacement.  I called all around from Reno and the closest place who
will do this is in Salt Lake City for $150, or possible Sacramento CA. I plan
to make a replacement just for backup, since they are so rare and expensive.

  But the bottom line is this:  Have 2 sets of side curtains and had Tripp
Plastics cut the window panes and asked them if I could polish out the
scratches (some pretty deep) sustained in my back window. The guy was not much
help and said, oh no, can't fix this, too deep.  Bullshit, found airplane part
site that has kits to do this also, but then went to local good paint shop and
this guy showed me in about 5 minutes how to do this. Bought 1500, 2000. and
2500 grit wet/dry, "Liquid Ice" polish compound and hand polished and  looks
great.
