Need new battery box for 81 Excella II

Do they make replacements for the Airstream Trailer Battery boxes? One of mine is cracked at the top. I expect it is some sort of slick plastic that won't repair easily.

Here is what I found. They also have one for the newer trailers.

Plastic Battery Box for 1977 thru 1981 200276 [200276] - $34.95 : Out-of-Doors Mart!, More Airstream Parts on-line than anyone!

Any other options folks? Both of my battery boxes are cracked and I suspect this is a good place for leaks to happen. There is no seal around the battery door so any water that gets in will find the nearest crack and end up on the floor.
