I was lookin' around on Surplus Shed and found these "GLASS SPECTRUM & POLARIZING DEMONSTRATION PLATES" for sale.

They look very transmissive in the picture, it might be possible to replace both polorizers on a smaller LCD and gain some transmissivenesstasticy. I think I'll need one so that I can do a "polorized triplet" since I messed up my original polorizer a little removing the antiglare. I'm thinking they'd make an excellent option for a polorized triplet because they're glass. There wont be any fussing with a stupid film trying to make it perfectly flat.

Do y'all think they would work for polorizing after the LCD and before the triplet?

[edit]
Oh yeah, I'm pretty much going to buy a couple of these if the experts here think they'll work. I probably wont need the other one if anyone would like to get "dibs" on it.

Oh, a link would be nice!
Here they are.

[edit2] (yes, I edit my posts A LOT!)

By the looks of this picture they're already at a 45º angle because of the orientation of both panels... (am I right?)

[edit3] (OK, this is getting re duck-o less)
I'm hoping this is "Polarcor". Here's a quote about Polarcor from Wikipedia:
QUOTE (Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizer))
An important modern absorptive polarizer is Polarcor, which is made by Corning. This material is a glass substrate which contains elongated silver particles in a film near its surface. Polarcor is more durable and can polarize light much better than Polaroid film, with low absorption of correctly-polarized light. It is widely used in optical fiber communications.


I'm thinking that if the transmissiveness is in fact higher than the polarizing film we could get elsewhere, it might be good to make a "polarized light" to get a brighter picture...?
