Default Plastic windows for '63 sport roof catalina.

I would like to find plastic/plexi-glass (or whatever the correct name is) for the scratch resistant light weight rear light (back window) and the side windows. Does anyone have a source for these, especially something that fits the original chrome glass surrounds? I found a '64 on Craigslist down here for sale about 7 years ago that was set up for the strip. When I looked at it they had replaced the side windows with plexi by a local glass shop and the shop had used a rubber channel that fit the chrome surrounds and held the thinner plexi perfectly in the surrounds. But they seller was not the owner and did not know anything other than a local shop did it. But could not tell me where.
Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated. The side glass itself is flat pieces so if I can't find a ready source I may try myself. But the back window is another matter.
