I have heard of using thin plastic rulers for scales on these windows. As Jeep says, one doesn't notice from afar. Have not tried this myself but it's on my list.
Also, clear plastic drawer dividers from parts cabinets may be good candidates for window material. And one may be able to find thin clear plastic at a craft store, or as scrap from a Plexiglas shop.

I bought a sheet of the proper thickness plastic, then cut and inserted new windows. What I have not done, yet, is to develop a clear graticule overlay as the originals have. The thing is, though, one doesn't notice that from afar. Jeep - K3HVG
