James, I hate to break this to you but even Santa will have a hard time filling that order. LOL
You will not find mirror tops cheap, good replacements will be starting at $1200. bucks. You can watch e-bay and when they come up see what they are selling for.
There is a company that repairs them on an exchange but again it's not cheap.
With your work situation for now you may just want to get a rain top or a set of used painted tops.
How bad are yours cracked outside or inside? Can you seal the cracks for now?
Good luck and send on a note to the big guy, maybe just maybe he can get a set down your chimney. Merry Xmas............Evil%20Smileebo

It costs about $800 to get a set re-glassed with smoked glass.  We have a set of fiberglass tops that are in primer that we would sell for $100.00 for the pair.  We also have some cracked, but not broken glass tops we would trade for a set of rebuildable one for just the shipping.  They wouldn't be pretty, but at least wouldn't leak.
