Default t-top canvas tops

My car has t-tops and when I purchased her about 6 years ago it came with a canvas top that would hook the rear pegs and there are rods that slip through the front holes on the A frame that can be screwed down. It has some velcros strips in the middle that hold it down a bit. I am looking for a new one since it is canvas and takes a lot of black RIT dye to bring the color back. Sun fades quickly. There is not a label of manufacturer or company name.

Has anyone seen one or has something similar? I am guessing I can go to a shop that makes covers for boats and they can duplicate it. They are quite nice to have when you don't want to lug around the heavy tops and weather is questionable.

Any help or suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance.

I can provide photos if someone is unsure what I meean.

The aftermarket providers carry these. Looks for "Rain Coats." There are a couple of different types.

I've heard of these, but never seen them. Any pics? I would consider getting them, but do they leak easily?
