Hawks has a few junk convertibles in his yard, he usually get top dollar for his parts, but it might be worth the call if you can't find it anywere else. I did see some on ebay a few months back also. Hawks - 1-864-855-2694

Re: solinoid help

Are you sure the solenoid is bad? Many just get dirt in the mechanism that "pops" the latch. Try lubricating the shaft with a light oil like WD40 and see if it comes back to life before replacing the part.
