I got my Mohair one from this guy - http://stores.ebay.co.uk/J-C-AUTOMOTIVES?_trksid=p4340.l2563

He does PVC also in different colours and fitting took my around 5 hrs with simple tools and would be far easier to do by yourself than trying to replace the complete hood and frame and from £109 for the basic cover you won't better a brand new item with a cheaper secondhand one.

This is the company he supplies for and the one I fitted - http://www.car-hood.co.uk/
