Have you considered getting the lens or upper frame from Lewmar? If
you can find a friendly Lewmar dealer (many riggers can special order)
you might get a reasonable price. I've given up trying to second
guess spares prices - sometimes key parts are dirt cheap, other times
they're more then the full item.

Here's a typical parts catalog:

Well lens implies an item that provide a focus. I work with optical
engineers all the time and when you imply Lens for a window I assumed
you were a ******.

Dont listen to Mooron. I spent over 2000 bucks on Lexan for my side
windows and after 8 years they are not living up to my expecations of
clarity. If you have a small "lens" then go with Armored glass not
Lexan. Lexan may be as tough but in the long run Glass is superior. How
large is your "lens"?
