I sent both of your requests to Steve Allen vetsteve@AOL.com.  He is a lifetime member but does not get on a lot anymore.  He owns a C3/C4 small junkyard here in San Diego. 

I will let you guys know what he comes back with.  You can contact him yourself if you want.  He had a set of original 82 Collector glass tops when I need them. That was a real find for me.  I traded him my two mismatching tops plus cash for the two correct ones.

M1131 t-tops aren't cheap. This is due to finding a matching hue. The sun faded the blue tint and since some cars sat outside and some sat in a garage the fade factor is different. 

I had the same issue years ago. Cracked D.S top and a good P.S. top. I wound up buying a set of black Galaxy glass tops from a guy named Derek. He owns CorvetteTtops.com. 

Here is a link to his web site http://corvettettops.com/88-90%20m-1131.htm

When your shopping around for a top be sure to check with some of our Supporting Vendors. I personally would stay away from the Acrylic paneled tops. They tend to scratch easy unless you are super careful with them. 

Btw, I sold the passenger side M1131 top on ebay about 10 years ago and got $960. Shocked I couldn't believe it. Darn near paid for my new set of tops.
