I think this is it. Not the cheapest, but probably cheaper than the dealership.

Honestly the OEM one is amazing. Fits perfect and it keep a lot of heat out (coming from a guy living in Tucson, AZ).

Alternatively, I can HIGHLY recommend this Fresnel lens. You use a little water to stick it to the top of your windshield, and it saves your neck from that bending.

You should try something like this:

Here's a cheaper one on Amazon (aka anyone other than MiniMania).
NOT SURE HOW TO POST A LINK HERE'S THIS Amazon link.
I am 6' 3" and sit tall, so I ended up getting a mini with no sunroof for the extra headroom (more than in my Volkswagen Tiguan!). Leg room is great! Both for length and width (knee spacing).
If you don't want to lean forward at stop lights, which is something I had to do about half the time in my Tiguan too, you can get something like this: LightinSight
I got one for my mini, and it works great for me.
Another helpful addition especially if you are tall in a mini is [this](LightInSight Traffic Light Lens Compatible with MINI Cooper https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FN9L2X7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_BJ2zCbGRYGATE)
I don’t mix the weird positions I would have to get in if I needed to see a traffic light.
Your soft top should have came with a rail to latch in there and that would give you something to hook into some thing like http://www.amazon.com/Bestop-51238-01-Windshield-including-Unlimited/dp/B0002SA22Q
Bikini or Crop? I have an extended top ("crop") that is brand new. I didn't like how difficult it was to put on and it requires a windshield bracket (sold separately).
This is the top.
It requires this windshield channel.
I was about to put them both on Craigslist for $100 if you're interested.
Has anyone tried this thing?
Not the answer you're looking for, but something I have found VERY useful given my height (6'5"). Not just in my Promaster, but my other car as well, I would always have to scrunch down to see stoplights .... very annoying and uncomfortable over time. This has made a HUGE difference:

I have a Promaster and I have found it to be reasonably comfortable to drive. I feel your pain. Best of luck in your search!
