I have the same problem and I think I am going to have to make my own patch.
I tried to find these pieces new but I couldn't find them, either I don't know how to search or nobody makes them because of low demand
 
Strange... can find everything else with relative ease! The condition of mine is beyond a patch unfortunately.
 
Full convertible time? Then would just need to find a new hardtop or buy a soft top
 
Still need that upper section to hold the windscreen in place though

That's the point of a full vert conversion. You end up replacing the upper third of the a-pillars and the section connecting them above the glass. You don't just cut the roof off behind the windshield to do the conversion.

Search full convertible swap here and you'll find many that have done it.

Or to get the section you need start prowling craigslist and FB marketplace in dry western states for a shell to pull the part from. If you live in the rust belt you won't find them locally.

He is in Jamaica
 
Thinking of full convertible conversion here is that you get relatively small parts shipped to jamaica, aside from the hardtop. Plus if you have any questionable metal on the roof, its now gone, so no need to worry about it anymore
