I can't tell what they are made of but it looks like those would be pretty simple to fabricate yourself for almost nothing. If it's plastic, just buy a couple cheap thin cutting boards at the dollar store and cut them to size and drill the holes and screw countersinks

Yup cutting boards or scrap aluminium, don't reuse holes, easier to put new holes you can just match drill. No guessing :wink:
