Instructions come with the track, I used to use panel pins and liquid nails, but now i just use liquid nails and a heap of clamps which seems to work fine. As far as glass or plexi goes, any glazier will cut and polish glass to size for you. Thing with plexi is it scratches very easily and depending on height it may warp enough for your animal to escape.

they are pretty easy....install the deeper of the 2 halves or tracking to the top of the enclosure and the shallower to the bottom of the enclosure......this allows you to remove the glass if you need to clean them....i used liquid nails to hold them onto the enclosure....just remember to clamp them in place......not sure about the plexi...i use glass for all mine.....

there are a few glaziers in sydney...did a google search and this is what i came up with

liquid nails and clamp over night , perspex for sliders is not the best option as it can flex in the middle .

i just use liquid nails, hold for a few minutes and it normally stays there, put the glass in 24 hours later.

i picked up some from snake whisperer, if you can be bothered doing the same it looks like he has routed a slot in for the glass track to sit in.
