Looking for the exhaust heat shield that protects the fuel tank from heat generated by the exhaust pipe. Bolts to the fuel tank support straps. The unit on my 2003 Vibe w/1.8L engine, FWD, and automatic transmission has rusted through.

Thanks for the tip regarding car-part.com — discovered them via another tip here on the forums a few years back. Super helpful, I'll be checking there too. Figured I'd spread my net as far as I can.
I have my heat shield wired up currently, but will be replacing fuel tank support straps soon (mine are getting crusty), and figured if I could find a replacement in decent shape I'd take the opportunity to fix it up right.
