Anyone reproducing the 57 58 Retractable original type sunvisors?

Has anyone purchased 57 or 58 retractable sun visors from Stock Interiors? I called them previously and they wanted me to send a picture of mine so they would know how to make them!

I would not deal with any company that does not have the correct pattern, the original visors have heat sealed seams & most these after market company's just sew the edges.
I would contact Jerry Miller, they have the correct ones. http://www.jerrysclassiccars.com/2014%20catalog%20pdf.pdf

I called Jerry's Classic Cars a couple of months ago and was informed that they use convertible sun visors on their 57 58 Retractable restorations. So that was another dead end.

I ask Dennis-Carpenter every time I see him or his son at Carlisle and Hershey. They reproduce the brackets/arms in plain or chrome but they say there isn't
enough demand for the visors! I know they started on them about 20 years ago and had some problems with manufacturing them according to one of their guys.
I gave Dennis some NOS 57 body mounts and it took them 15 years to get them into production! So who knows.
