Any glacier should be able to cut you one using the window surround as a template. House glass is thicker and stronger then auto glass and you can usually get it smoked in colour.

Yep. Its called a Windscreen surround
And any glazier who is willing to put house glass into a car needs to be in jail.

Correct me if im wrong but from what i heard....all new cars (and even older cars like the 1978 Gemini) will need to have a 'laminex' type of windscreen (can't remember the exact name)
