You will struggle I think pal, I bought a T3 12 top deck for mine before I sold it. You have to drill 2 holes if you want to use all needed screws but the car handled so much better with this mod

From memory I cut the old piece of top deck as to leave it holding the lay shaft bearings then fitted the top deck over the top you have to space the front and rear bulkheads up to meet the top deck (eg 2mm ) but this was common with the older cars to gain flex and is becoming more common now with the newer chassis to raise the top deck to give some flex but not as much as the thinner deck.

I can make you one if you want. I can use my top deck as a template. It will be made by hand so won't be quite as neat as the original. I made a front top deck for a mate a few year back as he couldn't get the parts either. PM me if your interested
