Big rod top

I need a big (as in a 22 or 24 / 64's) rod top for a cod jiggin' stick I'm rewrapping. I'm looking for a high quality non roller top (Fuji, etc) but can't seem to find a source. All the catalogs and sites I find seem to top out at 18 - and that ain't gonna work ! Worse case I need to reuse the one I have but it will look butt ugly on a purty 'new' rod.

Any advice is appreciated.
