TLM 102/103 body from AliExpress? Anyone here bought one?

Has anyone tried this mic body from AliExpress? I have this suspicion that it's meant for a PCB that has the capsule mount attached directly to it like some of the other cheapie mics and does not have an actual capsule deck to secure a capsule mount upon, but I thought I'd ask in case anyone has one or has seen the insides of this body.

I once bought two of these: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256803657716480.html
If you want to mount something inside, you have to use some creativity.
In the version I received, there were two 'pillars' inside that you could use to mount something on.
There is not very much space for a horizontal PCB, but I managed to get everything inside.
The 'shockmount' is made of plastic and won't probably last very long. (I don't use it.)

Thanks Ruud. I had a feeling as much. I think I've seen a similar body that just had two "rails" molded into the insides of the body. I'll probably just pass on this body then and pick something else from the usual same-old, same-old offerings out there. Much appreciated.
