  From what I can see, that looks exactly like ours except for the
colour and the homemade (?) pad. (mine also looks home made, but
different)  Ours, however has no straps or bracketry of any kind, and
it doesn't appear that anything has been removed.

  Chris Jordan has mentioned this accessory more than once, and I did
a couple of searches, but came up with bupkis.  Maybe he'll chime in.
