What is the best way to cut clear plastic?

Well my Ferrari 512 TR is just about finished, but I only have one taillight. I found an extra winshield that appears like it has the right curvature. What should I use to cut a piece out of the winshield?

Thanks. I managed to get it cut out with my hobby knife. Looks pretty good too.
