Where can I get some plastic sheet?

It's all in aid of cooling me when I'm driving the Griff.

The original heater box has all but died, and I want to fabricate a replacement, since the originals are of a nasty design and are hard to get...

So, I'm looking for a sorce for some heat weldable or gluable plastic sheet for the new box. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

B&Q sells both acrylic and policarb sheet both of which can be easy welded or glued. I wouldn't recommend either mind you and would say your better making a new box from GRP.

or maybe try ebay ?

plastic seems a bad idea.
