Did Golde really supply the Studebaker Skytop components?
Besides the interior handle that has 'GOLDE' stamped into it, there is pretty good circumstantial evidence here.....scroll to the 1962 Golde letter at the bottom of this page:  www.squarebirds.org/1962golde_top_brochure.htm

Technical Items:
This is a Must See!!! A really cool Golde “Instructions No. 4 for installation of GOLDE – Sliding roof with steel frame” is scanned in its entirety on the 56-59 Karmann Ghia Registry at: www.karmannghias.org/Golde1.htm, scroll down on the page.

Volkswagen fabric sliding sunroof parts are available at: www.westcoastmetric.com/bug.php?Section=Sunroof%20Seals%20%26%20Hardware&stat=1, although I do not know whether these are for Golde or Webasto sunroofs.
