OEM convertible top skin

Hi all

Has anyone ordered one of these from Mercedes Benz and are they better quality than those offered  through alternative suppliers such as SLS please?

Many thanks

By my knowledge KHM is supplier to MB , they stamp their star and raise price by a few hundreds..

"Tops are a fairy specialized manufacturing process with very few actual manufacturers.  Not having a "factory" top with the star stamp on the window glass is a one point deduction at high level shows so if you are not going to show the car the aftermarket top will be fine.

... that's what I heard too. But cannot confirm this, KHM would not reassure ....

Had a new original factory one which was on special sale a couple of years ago. In blue, with the original MB star in the rear plastic window.
Sold the ST canvas to a fellow member since I gave up my project car back then.

ST was mounted to his 906 colored car - very nice fit.
 
Have got a picture of Gerard's car .... cannout find it anymore on my computer...

I supplied GAHH with a plastic MB window which they sewn into their canvas top.
