Carrera Coupe drop glass......

Hi,
I'm trying to find a supplier of what I believe are Carrera Coupe drop glass for the doors.
If I explain what it is you may know of a supplier or even the correct name......The drop glass/Lexan is fixed via a leather strap that has several holes in that allows the window to be lowered and raised by fixing it onto a locking pin on the door. It replaces the need for winder regs etc, and looks great.

As a picture paints a thousand words I've 'borrowed' this image from a fantastic build thread that was posted on another forum which shows what I mean. I have attempted to contact the thread author and builder but haven't had any success.

If anybody has any ideas please let me know as I'm also looking for matching rear 1/4 glass.

Thanks,
John

mdmax72 - Thank you so much for your reply, the thread on the 356 registry gave me everything that I needed. I now have two leads for the windows, so it's taken another small step forward.
