Lets talk aftermarket crystals - 1163/1563/2446

We all know that getting hold of original crystals for these models isn't easy.

I know that James (dreamboat10) has been through every catalogue he knows to try to find a good replacement. He was successful, but they aren't quite the correct profile.. so I'm wondering if any of you out there have found a supplier that do a really good replacement.. with a nice sharp 'top hat' edge & vertical side profile?

I find it ludicrous that out of the thousands of aftermarket crystals, we can't find a suitable match!!

Please share your thoughts and findings.
