From my experience, unless you are paying for international service on your cell phone you will not be able to use it for international calling.
Rebeca is who I contacted to get my top a few years ago. Here is her direct email address; rebecca.web.bas@gmail.com. She is very responsive and will get back to you same day or next depending on your time zone difference.

Reason: added additional info
I purchased top from BAS in January 2022 and communicated with Rebeca via her email noted in the thread. Made one call to them at the number in the thread and found out my cell phone is not signed up for international calling but the wife's is. All went smooth and now have top that Rebeca had quoted a 6 week availability on.
Thank you. I actually was able to complete the purchase without a phone call and was also told a six week turn around. Are you going to attempt the install yourself?

Good to hear you have been able to complete your top purchase. Yes, I plan to do the install myself. I like the challenge of doing these kind of repairs. In searching for my Crossfire I looked at one that had a BAS top installed by local shop, owner showed me receipt for $2700 (including top cost). No way am I going to invest that kind of money in this old car. I've watched two videos on top installation and only area I'm a bit concerned about is how to install/stretch the front of the new top on the frame.
I replaced my top with the help of my bro-in-law. Without some help when physically removing the top from the frame and installing the new one it will be difficult as there are two straps that run front to back that the top has to go over. I recommend to take pictures as you start to disassemble especially when you drill out the rivets; note the direction of the strap that holds the top to the frame. Also, on the OEM there are two different size pop rivets that were used, on the rivets that came with my top they were all the same size with a plastic insert for the larger holes. Lastly, there are several small clips, 13+/-, on the bottom of the top that that have to be reused. I will look for any photos I may still have and update this post if I find them. Regarding attaching the front of the top to the frame, I would recommend laying the top on a blanket in the sunlight when you start to disassemble the top, it will be a bit hard to close the first few times until the top gets stretched out. I had to use both hands on the D handle to pull it down to latch the first few times. I posted some pics of the new stop in a thread after I was finished, you will be very pleased with the results. Good luck!
Thanks for sharing that number with us. I was searching for it online for so long and I am so happy I found your post. I was actually looking for this https://www.topwritersreview.com/reviews/studypool/ website where I can read reviews for different essay writer and when I was searching for them online, I found your post.

Again, lets hope it didn't degrade while in storage, like a current new buyer of a preowned crossfire, who has a problem with a recently installed new top the previous owner eventually installed.

New tops are "new"
They are manufactured upon ordering one
6 to 8 weeks lead time
Hi all. New to this forum. I just purchased an 05 roadster. In relatively good shape but with a couple of issues and some "things to keep an eye on ".
One of the minor for now, but potentially big issues is the convertible top webbing material that goes from front to rear is not attached at the front. (Driver's side) Is this usually a simple fix? All advice is welcome, and thanks!

Welcome to Crossfireforum. It's not a hard fix, but if the top is old or in questionable shape, I'd change the top and the straps at the same time. To be sure we are talking about the same item, you might post a photo in this thread and we can go from there. MANY of us (but not me) have had to deal with this.
