Looking for old square 100a meter-base cover - pics

[LarryFine]

A customer has an apartment building, one cover (and the meter) has been stolen. POCO checked out the insides, and is okay if we can find a replacement. A cover from a single base will fit, too. Otherwise we have to replace the whole thing with a 2g 200a base. The cover is approx 7.5" x 7.75"

Here are pics of what we have, what we want, and what we hope to avoid having to do:

I thought about that. I could even take one in as a model for them to duplicate.

I have a POCO guy who is looking through used parts at a couple of locations for me.

Yes, but it doesn't really matter any more. All I have to do now is put the cover on, after I paint it.

"I see a cover and I want it painted white."
