why not just make yourself one?

Must be easier than to "mod" a universal one..

1 pipe, 2 round steel-plates, something to cut out metal with, welding-torch and some genious.. :P

But: From the older 300-models, it had some "stiffners" in the engine-bay..

Maybe it will be on the other side, for the "wrong-wheeled" 300's.. ;) :P

Those same bars are on newer 300-series too. They are just hid under the newer style heater box. :P

Yes they are!

Items that few people will buy are bound to be expensive. Either adapt/make it yourself, or pay through the nose, when modifying a 300.
