Westfalia struts

[Daverob73]

I noticed one of the struts in my pop top roof has cracked does anyone know where I can get a replacement?
It's on a LHD 1970 Westfalia.

The other side with straight strut.

Or try looking on thesamba.com, they come up from time to time.

Thanks creationblue, I was just wondering what to use, Steel should be stronger than the original
