Wrolf, with all those hogarth links on your website (nice job, by the 
way) I am amazed to see you even considering the garbage mentioned below.

Really, you need DR standard wings or the excellent AUL or Halcyon clones 
and a stainless steel backplate. Both AUL and Halcyon provide a complete 
WKPP style harness if you are too lazy or dim to do it yourself.

BUT, if you are hell-bent on a ABS backplate (God know why), I have 2 of 
them, a DR and a OMS, which I am willing to part with for only half the 
price of a SS one, hehehe.

And yes I am an atlantic wreck diver not a caver, hogarth works in salt 
water as well as fresh.
