I paid around £60 for an 8x4' sheet of 4mm. It may be 5mm actually.

Airedale race components (http://www.raceplastics.com/which_cars.htm)

or

Plastics4performance (http://www.plastics4performance.com/Lexan--Makrolon--Perspex-race-and-rally-windows-and-window-kits/VAUXHALL---Lexan--Makrolon-polycarbonate-windows/NOVA/WINDOW-KITS/c-1-288-514-515-637/)

I got mine from Airedale many moons ago, very helpful bloke.

I think ACW Motorsport Plastics is cheaper than the above two places. Plastics4performance looks reasonable till it's an extra £45 for 2 sliders!
