Pre-sized to fit? Nowhere. Lexan is a polycarbonate that you can easily trim to fit your application. Hope you're not considering these plastic windows for you street car. Very bad idea.

Lexan will not break. It is used around hockey rinks as glass. You can take a piece and hit it on a chunk of steel and it will not break. It does scratch and will turn yellow if exposed to sun. It can be used on side and back windows but not a windshield. Race cars run plexiglass. This stuff does break so the holes must be burnt in with a hot poker. Lexan is bought in sheets and easily cuts with a band saw into any shape. It can also be bent into permanent shapes with heat from a hot air blower
