1911 grip safety question...

I'll be picking up my new Colt Series 80 stainless possibly today. It's a plain 1911, no beavertail safeties or high speed low drag tactical stuff:) The only thing I want to change is the standard beavertail to one of the non fitted type wide "T" style that some Colts came with. Someone on this forum (I'm sorry I can't remember who) graciously sent me one a few years ago and it dropped right on to a Springfield Milspec (that I dearly regret selling!) with a standard spur hammer and worked perfectly. Can one of you enlighten me on what that style grip safety is called and where I might find one. I looked at Midway and Brownells and all I'm finding are the fitted style beavertail grip safeties. Thank you in advance,
