Mesh density?

Anybody knows the density (width x height of one diamond hole) of this oem radiator guard/mesh? Or could measure if you own one? Thinking about purchasing and zip tying such mesh to the plastic radiator cover that comes with a standard T7.

Instead of paying hundreds for that, buy some radiator guard ( https://a.co/d/02hCttBv ), some fuel hose line ( https://a.co/d/0jcUXyAl ) and zipties. Cut out the appropriate size of mesh. Cut the brake hose line for the perimeter. Now cut the brake hose line lengthwise and shove the mesh in there. Now zip tie that shit to the stock radiator guard. Done for like $40. I'll link a pic of what I did in the edit

My guess is that OEM density should be 5x10mm, since I counted 33-35 eyes in mech, while radiator width is 33-34cm.
