It might not be that hard to make a pair , find a piece of steel pipe and cut it in half , take a pair of pliers and the pipe to your local welder , or buddy with a mig or tig machine in his garage, and BAM !


edit : find the right size pipe and mail it to me , I'm sure I have some pliers , {i think I owe you for a bezel anyway}
