Default 65 convertable rear window replacement

hellomy 1965 mustang convertible needs a new rear plastic window.the old plastic rear window was so old and dry it cracked when i put the top down.based on my limited research it looks like a new rear plastic window can zip in but the likelihood of proper alignment with the existing zippers is questionable?as far as i know the top is original.
is this something reasonably basic or is there potential for a big expensive complication?any advice, tips or vendor choice info will be appreciated.
thanks

Aftermarket ones wont just zip in. Bottom is simple tack strip, but top (with zipper) is much more involved. Tough DIY, but pretty easy for upholstery shop.
