With some sliding openings too?
just emailed the company, i'd personally want a whole kit but the way the seem to do it is you can mix and match as you want.
I'd be interested in the rear quarters and rear window. So if some else just wanted door windows that's be another full set ;-)

How do you plan on clearing the rear window if it mists up? That is a problem I am having at the moment (my rear screen heater isn't wired up at the moment).

Open a window.... :|

I have a plan I've not really thought about yet to circulate air around the cabin.

That is the only real solution. Since I have no way of clearing the front or rear windows I am driving around at the moment with my windows open as the inside of my car starts to steam up other wise. In heavy rain I can see it being a real problem as even an open window will not be able to clear it. Mornings are also a problem too as my open window will not clear the rear screen.

Yeah I plan on having some sort of ventalation system going on. In the front, out the back sort of thing. It'll be a trial and era kinda thing though.
