Assuming they are still stocked, they are about $75 each at a discount online parts dealer like Gaudin Jaguar. It may be difficult to find them on the used market, because they usually want to sell the whole seats intact and a lot of them are probably broken already.

I might still have the template, if I find it I will knock up a quick drawing and post it up, it is a very simple shape, a trianglar quadrant with the 2 straight edges folded over. I used 3mm (1/8) aluminium, a couple of countersunk screws with plastic caps pressed into the top of the screws, worked and looked a treat

I tried looking for the template....no joy I am afraid.... I can tell you how I made it....
You will need a good trim piece to start off with, does not matter which side, get a cereal box and cut a side off, lay the trim piece on it, draw around it, then fold the cardboard over the edges, draw around these, cut the shape out.
You can even mark the holes, it does not have to be an exact representation, just pretty close and it will look a million dollars better than the broken item.
You can fold the template both ways to use for each side, duplicate the template on some 3mm ali and cut it out, fold the 2 edges, drill the holes, you will need some kind of bush for the back to use as a spacer, washers will work if you have nothing else to hand, just super glue them together, cover it, screw it on!
