Default Protective cage

Thanks everyone or the input, but the cage has to be 100% original as I am working on a project where I am simulating the rear portion of a Sherman turret, both inside and out. In this simulation all Control Units, cables, and every nut and bolt are to be original and period items. So far I've found all components with the exception of the front cage (I have one in brown for my other 19 set) and the cable loops used to hold the cables to the turret walls. Those are super rare as they typically remained in the tanks when they were scrapped!
Other than the turret itself, which I've made from plywood and plaster, and the shelf to support the 19 set which I made out of plywood and wood blocking, every metal item within the turret specifically for the 19 set will be truly original. So hence the reason why I'd like an original cage. Luckily I can wait it out as they occasionally turn up on ebay, it's just a case of how much money I want to spend.
Cheers,
Patrick
