If it was not glass originally, Lexan (brand) plexi is highly bendable
and more durable then standard plexi. It will take 2 or 3 able bodied
people to bend the lexan and pop it in the weatherstrip. 
Been there, done that and with some finesse and a heat gun or a lot of
finesse and a propane torch, you can gently heat the curved areas after
it is installed to take some of the pressure off the bends.
Worked for me.
