Thermo housing with fil cap

I've seen pics on various sites of people who have a metal thermostat housing on their RX7 that has a fill cap on it. Where would I get one of these? They look very useful.

Those are the housings used on S4s. They won't fit an S5.

Right, there are aftermarket units for sure but they are a bit hard to find. Another option is to just cut the flange off of an S4 neck then make your own three bolt flange to weld on.
