Majestic have it for $10.13, thats more expensive than the polished stainless accord bracket on ebay. Hmm...Home made braket might not be bad idea.

But how would i shape the aluminum plate? the OEM braket shaped like it hug the battery on both corner.

I might gonna get those clear Fiberglass too for the Rear spare tire lid. Has anyone do this?
mine is made of cardboard now, not pretty and not presice either, cave in all the time .

If you are talking about the hold down then all you need is a short section of aluminum angle stock. You will have to notch it to clear the battery posts (maybe and drill a pair of holes for the holddown bolts. Personally, I went to the dealer and bought the complete deal because the rust and corrosion on the tray itself was just that bad. You can ask a yard to do a search-there are a lot of 88-91 and later Hondas that use these parts.
