Default Convertible Top Tension Cable Bracket Replacement

The plastic window was shot on my original convertible top, but I found a serviceable glass window top at a salvage yard and swapped them out. I replaced the whole top, frame and all, and that went pretty well. But when I went to connect the tension cables, I found that the brackets and ball connectors were missing from the new top. The holes are there from where the rivets would have been, but it looks like someone took them off for some reason. The new glass top is decent but has some flaws. I may want to put a new canvas on my original frame someday, so I don't really want to have to cannibalize it and drill out the rivets to steal those brackets if I don't have to. I'd like to just order replacements, but I can't find any to order or even any info about them so I know what to search for. Does anyone know where I might be able to order some from or the part numbers? I can't even figure out what they're officially called. Thanks!
