Default Perspex windows and MOTs

I am doing a 306gti6 for track use but would really like to drive it there and back (hopefully back) because of ferry costs for trailer off the isle of wight.
I want to put perspex door glass and rear quaters but are the good for MOT?

Yeah they'll be ok for MoT
If you really are worried though just ask your local MoT tester

vents are good to get some air in the car but crap for security if you plan to leave it anywhere
