Series II - Cubby - Glove Box

I have an ill fitting Cubby Box for my 1962 Alpine.
It does not fit the hole properly.
It does not have the attachment point, that attach to the pins of the Cubby Box Surround.

Who likes what source for a proper fitting Cubby Box?
Thanks!
 
Anyone ever MADE a Cubby?
My research seems to be that no one is reproducing a properly fitted cubby box for the Series II (right hand, no grab handle cut out, attaches to back of "cubby box hard plastic surround posts)

The cubby box I have is mis-shaped & I don't have the attachment clips.
So considering making one; I must be a fool to try such a thing!

Anyone ever done such a thing?
Know where to obtain the inner flocking that lives inside the cardboard?

Thanks!

Classic Sunbeam sold both types because I bought both not too long ago. One doesn't have the cutout and one does. I think the difference is the one without the cutout is for the wood dashboards and the ones with the cutout are for the standard ones. Someone correct me if I'm wrong here. As for fitting, I've always used tiny black zip ties and just a tad of persuasion to fit them and they fit well. I always yank the staples out and just hot glue it back together because the staples make my OCD go nuts lol.

My '61 series II has a plastic dash without the cutout (original, bought in '67).
