Good afternoon Mike, 
My build occurred during the demise of the original Europa company and I was 
shorted
all my glass. I went to LP Aero here in the US and they had them available.
If I were you, I would want to contact them directly to make sure you having
the cockpit width mod doesnt effect the glass you need. 
They are located in Pennsylvania, which is the Eastern time zone. Phone number
724 744-4448 or email info@lpaero.com. And you can look at their website at 
lpaero.com.

Hope this helps.
