They don't have a window side panel for mine.There are advantages to being retarded...and I'm taking advantage of all of them.

I don't have a ton of experience on this topic, but my feeling would be a hole saw run at low speed to prevent melting the acrylic. You could then cover with some kind of fan grate/grill to make it look properly finished.
Trust me, I do science
