Neil, I'm a little behind here and know you already have the windshield, but a resource I use for auto parts is rockauto.com. Using the windshield as an example, I could get a new windshield (includes attachments) for a 2011 Smart Fortwo Electric shipped to my home in Texas for the grand total of $335.60 (windshield: $264.79 + 3-4 day Ground Shipping: $70.81).

Its at least another resource for parts and every now and then they send out 5-15% off discount codes via email. Unless I need something right away, I usually get it from rockauto. If you live in the US, you will want to make sure it is being shipped from the US as they have warehouses all over the world. I have never tried returning anything, so I cant speak to that end.

Awesome build, I really enjoy your creativity!
