I've seen ones that are a flat plat, and others that are machined from a piece of billet ally. Nothing all that complex as the bonnet catch will still work at a funny angle, plus you have catches anyway...
No pics though

On my XSi they were quite literally flat plates. I can't remember correctly but I think it was like a flat plate, then long bolts, then another flat plate.

Aye actually, they're vertical aren't they?
I need to re-align mine, fucked it up when I fitted bonnet lifters.
