Convertible roof chords

Hi all,
I have a 640d convertible. One of the chords holding in place the inner headling has become frayed to a point where I fear it will soon break. I have made enquiries at my local BMW dealership and the repair kit cost is £22.10 however fitting has a monumental cost of well over £700:00.
There are several chords on each side of the hood that all have different purposes, however the one that is frayed I can trace quite easily and have good access to sections in order to replace it.
Has anyone out there attempted to replace one of these chords?
Hopefully I have attached a jpeg of it.
