Mark,

I don't know. If Rick were aware of it, in my experience, he would 
quickly refund the money, and get a new source.

Martha Wheat is the place to go, if she is still in business, for 
upholstery and top work - in original and superior. but not original 
(Leather, custom tops, etc.)

But, while fairly priced, isn't inexpensive.

I wonder who sells the special O.E.M. forehead bandages for trunk lid 
impacts?  Seems to be in demand.

Steve
