Default Turbo heat sheild extra bracket to the head

Maybe I'm going mad but I'm 99% sure there was a topic about the turbo heat shield not sitting straight and someone from europe showed a pic of a little bracket they made that bolted to the head holding it straight

PF search is useless now and I must have gone through 20/30 odd pages now trying to find this thread

it's a ten minutes job m8.... and don't requiered special tool or skills
I would prefer mine as it as a quick relaese facility and don't need new screw or spacer such as the one of Stu (with all respect to him! as it's closer in idea to the WRC item made by Ford)

I'm living in France!! I would have done it if I had the chance to live in your beautyfull country where motorsport is a way of life.
if you can't sort this out I'll see what I can do but I'm not there this weekend (finals of the french rally championship) and I'm moving into my new flat in 3 weeks so I'll be busy for a while
Sorry

that's what I've done:




you juste need an alloy plate about 10mm wide 1-2mm thick you drill an open hole ø6 on the bottom to fit it in the water rail then you bend it to match the heatshield and there juste use a rivet (painted black )
