The rear glass is available from Jack Ashcraft and from Mats at MotorSport Sweden. It's not cheap though. I believe both are made from scratch resistant aircraft 'glass'. My '69 Sonett has plexiglass on the rear, and I would recommend against it. It will warp slightly in the heat forming tiny ripples (making viewing out the rear view mirror annoying), and it is not as scratch resistant.
The front glass IS the same size and shape as the glass from any Sonett III, and is therefore not too hard to find. I know it fits - I just replaced my '69 V4 front glass with that from a Sonett III. The only difference is that the III glass has a slight green tint (almost unoticable) whereas the Sonett II/V4 glass is completely clear.
