Default Henley cubby box

In the mid 60s my father ran a 3.8 Mk 2 and it had a cubby box arm rest between the front seats. I used to sit on it or stand on it and put my head out of the sunroof. Those were the days before mandatory sear belts in the UK.
I now have a 3.4 Mk2 and am looking for a Henley box. I think they are so called because they were an after market option offered by the main dealer called Henleys.
Does anyone make such a box these days?

Originals sometimes appear on eBay at, imo, grossly inflated prices. The link above gives some info on making one, which makes sense as an old one will inevitably require a lot of work.

This is what the box looks like mounted between the seats - it is an indispensable anti-slide addition!
