Anyone know the thickness of the front, side, quarter and rear glass?
 
What a strange question. I don't know if the sails are thinner, but it couldn't be much easier to measure the doors. Figure right around ¼".

Why is it you ask, if I may ask?

I'm getting lightweight replacements that are available in 1/8", 3/16" and 1/4" thicknesses. I need to know which one to get, and if there are differences between the front/side/rear.
 
Ah, I suspected. I don't know if a glass shop would even know, you may have to do some "research" [vandalism] at a junk yard. The doors have to survive without frames, the rear-quarters would probably be fine at 1/8", I used that on the rears of a 510, just Lexan, and it held up fine for the seven years I had it.
