R129 - Soft top manufacturers

I'm having real difficulty in locating an authentic replacement top for my baby.
Large thread on UK forum - http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=26860


Here's the simple criteria

1. Must use Wopavin flex-glass at 1.5mm and 1.25mm thickness for rear quarter and centre plastic

2. Flex glass must be stitched

3. Must use Sonnenland canvas (or send me a sample to review)

4. Must have piping around the edges

5. Preferable to have the rubber strip that runs horizontally across the canvas between the front and rear sections.

Here are the companies I have reviewed:

Aresma GmbH
Eurotop GmbH
GAHH (US)
Prestige Auto (UK)

None of the above meet the min requirements so just wondering if anyone can suggest alternative manufacturers?

Cheers
Lea
