Default beam plates

looking for some info on driveline beam plates.
Where to buy some, if anyone has some input on them, and how much work it is to install them.
Can any one help me out?

Easy to install, makes working on the C-Beam a breeze. Definately adds some stability to the driveline.

Last time ever you will have to do the PITA "balance the spanner on top of the C beam" trick to undo the bolts routine.
Notable difference with stick car; rear does not kick out on shifts
