Default Manual Trim Cable Anchor SB

Getting ready to do my annual and it seems that I remember that some RV component manufacturer had fabricated a replacement piece that appeared to be better than a welded nut on a plate. I use to have it book marked but my computer crashed and lost it. Anybody know what I am talking about or am I dreaming?

thanks

Vans has a SB that might be what you want.
It's a nut welded to a plate.

Edit:
I just read your subject line. Sorry
Yes, there is a machined replacement.
I don't remember who sold it, either.

I got one of the machined AL ones. I'm planning on installing it at annual time. The piece is very nice, but the holes do not match existing holes, so you need to get a new cover plate.
