Fender vintage style string through bridge

Messages

Any idea where to find one of these? I know one exists because fender put it on the signature mark hoppus bass. I just can't find anywhere to order parts from fender and I have no other ideas. I'm wanting to build a warmoth bass... but I want a vintage style string through bridge for it first. Any ideas?
 
The Vintage and newer American Standard, three-bolt, string-thru bridges are all the same route.  Sting's 50s P-Bass, the Mark Hoppus Bass, American Standard all have the same route, though bridge designs differ.  The Leo Quan BadASS III is string -thru and fits these routes as well.  Here's the kicker.  Warmoth doesn't currently offer a route for these bridges.  The only string-thru for a four string offered (other than the single string Hipshot) is the Gotoh 206, but that bridge is discontinued.
 
if you're looking for a '51 Tele P reproduction bridge, AllParts stocks one made by Wilkinson

The Strat hardtail that Warmoth is selling has wider string spacing than a Fender one.

Does it still use the same screw hole and string hole positions?

Warmoth does not route for this bridge....I wish they would.
