Default Missing meshed piece in roll hoop

I'm missing the piece (drivers side), that goes in your roll hoop that stops some extra wind from entering the cockpit. Not sure what it's called. It's black and has all those little holes in it so wind still passes through but limits the amount that swirls around your head. Dealer wants $163 for one. Is there someplace that is cheaper or sells used?
Thanks!

I bought a replacement from ebay. Much cheaper. Remember there is a letft and right, so make sure you buy the right side. I had to troll ebay for a while to find the correct side. I also velcroed the mesh inserts in.

I will give EBay a try, does anyone know what the correct name for the piece is?

I searched on Boxster and mesh. I'm sure I missed some, but it worked. Maybe also try Boxster rollbar insert or some variation on those search terms.

I am missing the passendger side, so if you find a pair for a reasonable price, let me know & I'll buy the other side from you.

Thanks for the search tips guys, I will try them. GusLight - If I find a pair I will let you know so you can get the passenger side.
