Default 93 Convertible with broken balance link

Does anyone know where I can get the 2 balance links for a 93 convertible? I've looked through many sites and parts catalogs and could not find them anywhere. I haven't found a junkyard or parts dealer in my area that has them either. The only site that I could find that even correctly IDs them is the Convertible Top Repair & Adjustment Manual. Any information on replacing them would be greatly appreciated!

Well, the top was out of adjustment and wouldn't go down all of the way, so apparently the previous owner used to force the top down and had eventually cracked both balance links. The last time the top was put up, it somehow caught the corner trim and twisted the top until the balance link broke. In short, both balance links need to be replaced before I can even get the top down again. Any ideas where I could find a pair?
