Have any of you seen or know about the "Radio Grille Screen" behind the radio grill in a '54-'55 first dash? Most have long since disappeared. Perhaps you have seen some remnants.

My '54 has the retainer tabs at the top, but there is nothing on the bottom to attach a screen or baffle.
I'm gonna engineer something, but it will help if I know what I am trying to replicate.
Thanks for your help,
