Broken Flange

Hey there:
I've got a broken flange, see picture. The plastic that holds the screws that come up from the floor through the toilet. I just saw on a DIY show some kind of metal bracket that screwed into the subfloor and over the top of the old ring. Can you folks direct me to this?

I just tiled the floor and was putting in a Fernco wax free seal as the tile is above the flange some.

Replace the flange with one like this and be sure to screw it down to the floor.

Easier said than done by an amateur.

We will use a red repair ring to hold the bolts down.
Our trucks carry a 1/4" rotohammer for drilling tile and concrete.

I found one similar to that at the big box, but then went with this smaller thing so I wouldn't have to modify the tile:

Locked down the toilet and it seems steady as a rock.
