Something to consider wato,

I went down the same track with polycarbonate sheet from Bunnings. Didn't produce a result anywhere near Gramp's professional job, just fixed it to the rear window with metres of tape. Worked well for three long trips, including Birdsville Track, Oodnadatta Track, and similar others, but then flew off on a sealed road on Yorke Peninsula.

If it had hit a pedestrian? doesn't bear thinking about! Spoke to NRMA - their advice was that anything other than a commercial product could affect insurance adversely. We can't get a commercial product for our canopy so will stick to cardboard in the future.

The only problems I had with mine on my 93RRC, is that in really hot weather (say 40c at Kakadu) the glue on the velcro goes soft and the perspex sheet slid down the glass until it rested on the ledge at the bottom of the glass.

No biggies but if you car does not have a ledge at the bottom of the rear window the perspex could slide down.

I did one based on the Moggs design. Easy peasy - cost about $100 from memory and used the 3M Twin Lock Stuff which has lasted very well except for two little pieces that fell off, but there are many small bits to ensure safety.

It was a fun little project and way cheaper than some of the other projects.... ;-0
