WTD: Lexan or other polycarbonate

Wanted to make side screen windows: 2 pieces c 100x45cm each, probably 4mm thick. My local glazing co wants over £80, and pricing up the few I have found on t'internet seems to be £50+, so does anyone have any spare bits that they would be willing to sell for less stupid money?

U2U or email please

TIA

Simon

Got an offcut when I did mine from our local plastics specialist , cost me about a fiver IIRC. Might be worth letting your fingers do the walking??

The glazing place is the plastics specialist too, but they didn't have any offcuts big enough
