Default Early Post-War British Fire Extinguisher

Please see attached pic. I have one of these extinguishers, but am in need of the bracket that it mounts on.

Pic is of a Ferret sold recently in Oz.

Thanks
Doug

They are the Methyl-Bromide extinguisher and are wartime. They continued in use untill replaced by ( I assume) the BCF type. I have original brackets on my Sherman, though the extinguishers are repro. Both are very hard to find here in the UK.
