LWB canopies come up from time to time and are often cheaper than SWB canopies..
Cutting and shortening a LWB job to fit a SWB isn't hard and would probably be a lot cheaper.

I have a LWB canopy here you can cut down $100.. Needs a new rear glass and hinges but is otherwise OK I think. Includes overhead section.

Mate I have seen this top, it's in good nic, I was about to take it but decided not to..
If you can't fiberglass, this is a good opportunity to learn..

Overhead part is good.. Just needs latches to lock it down.
Rear section needs tailgate glass and hinges.
