You could check ebay or yahoo stores. I just bought one from ebay. If you do decide to buy one, buy one made from lexan (aka: polycarbonate resin) - it is much stronger, scratch resistant and is bullet proof. Not that you should need that, but you get the point. See description:

Lexan®, also known as polycarbonate is approximately 250 times stronger than plate glass and 30 times stronger than acrylic of equal thickness. Polycarbonate sheet provides lasting protection against vandalism and burglary, as well as against natural occurrences, such as high winds, snow loads, and hailstorms. It is unlikely to break, shatter or chip when bombarded with thrown objects such as rocks, bricks, and bottles, nor is it likely that the material will break when hammered, twisted or bent.

Expect to pay no less than $100 up to $300. Just keep in mind, you get what you pay for no matter what material it's made of. Thing to consider, if you do buy one, make sure the edges of the material are rounded like the top of your door windows OR have a strip around the edge. To some people, this is minor, but you bought a Mercedes... let's not look ghetto and use one manufactured by some guy in a machine shop with a bandsaw.

Also, if you think about it, the wind not blowing the back of your head is worth the money.

Good Luck!

We bought a plexiglass windscreen here, shipped quickly and installed easily. Even came with some free goodies, including a cleaning kit, and a small keychain flashlight.

Cool!
