You will see them pop up on here from time to time. Personally, I like OEM, so I'd wait for a takeoff (hard to find) or I'd buy from Roger if I didn't want to wait (or if I wanted a brand new one). And I think his price is very fair, especially when you consider the up front investment on his part to get it reproduced. A used OEM one, with rust, will often run you over $100, easy. If you just want any tray, there are cheaper options. If you want original, I'd go with Roger or wait for one on the parts board if not in a hurry and you enjoy restoring them yourself.
