Where to order trunk board other than dealership

I need to replace the board in my trunk that covers the spare tire. Anyone know where I can order one besides the dealership?

probably easier to buy a sheet of masonite and cut it with a jig saw...

Make one yourself out of 1/8" particle board or something similar. Its what I did and its way more sturdy and cheaper than the mitsu OEM.

Checked my local wreckers, the bastards don't have any lancers! Nekkidlad, the one I have is busted in half. The cardboard/board is lame.

I may just have to make a custom one, was going to see if there were any aftermarket ones that would be made of stronger stuff.

it would almost seem that if you made one yourself it would be a super PITA to place it inside the trunk with the shape of it. no?

When I had my 2 15" subs in the trunk I used a custom made box that sunk into the spare tire hole. Cut a 36"x36" piece of whatever your using, that will be enough to completely cover the hole.
Measure the distances from the inner walls, attach small stubs on the underside to prevent movement. Get some 3m spray and trunk liner from Walmart or what have you, attach it to the board and cut away the extra or tuck it into the sides of the trunk walls. Could be done for around 20 bucks. This is something I'll be doing soon ,since I took those subs out I just have a big empty space. I thought about rhino lining as another option ,but its kinds expensive and I wouldn't even use half of it.
