Yes did this on mine using 6mm polycarbonate. Started by cutting a template from card then used a jigsaw with a fine blade to cut it out. Tried numerous ways of fitting it but ended up with the bottom edge "inside" the door using the window seal clips to hold the base then bolting and bonding the rest using M4 buttons and sikaflex. Then I bonded some rubber extrusion on to cover the bolt heads etc. Finished the inside off with a strip of wood covered in carbon film shaped to fill the gap and make it look better! Couldn't think of a better way..
Can't get this old iPad to upload pics but can email some if it helps
Still no luck sorry :-(

most people use 4mm thick, which is msa minimum thickness allowed
Sorry all just spotted the typo I used 5mm polycarbonate
We make a polycarbonate window kit for the Escort four door.
