The seller said that the bottom part is easy to fabricate, and hard to find
used because they often get damaged when they are removed from the van.  I
can't imagine that this piece would be easy to fabricate because it has the
round groove that allows the turning, doesn't it?  I think somebody is
going to be a disappointed buyer on these.
