Cabriolet Top Boot - Anyone Replaced Theirs?

My new 1982 SC cab has a nice new top but is missing the boot, the PO simply used the tonneau cover and folded it down behind the front seats. I have small kids and will actually use the back seats, so I would like to source a proper boot. Has anyone replaced theirs semi-recently? If so, I'd like to request feedback on your choice of provider as well as the material, as there are several to choose from. Thanks!

Nobody has had to buy a new one of these?

I have an original I might be willing to sell. It's in in perfect condition and comes with the storage bag too. I'm assuming yours is a conversion, or the year is wrong?

When I get one for the Cab I'm restoring, I'm going with Haartz.

It was a pre-delivery dealership conversion, so it's an OEM figment top. Shoot me a PM if you'd like to sell it.

To the others, thanks for the feedback, I will look into those options.
