Factory fitted?
Maybe dealer fitted aftermarket ones.
There is a guy who is always at the Sandown swap meet that has them for sale. About $160 or $180 a pair unpainted

PS. They were about$100, but that was a few years ago so prices may have risen.
Very easy to fit, they just clip on then use 2 screws to secure them.
