The extension is either for the low C Prestige (1183R) and Tosca (1185) basses that can be converted to a low D bass without it fitted:

Their low Eb basses (1183 and 1180) could easily be converted to low D as they stand by adding a bell key to close off the bell vent and a RH thumb key to operate it as all the lower joint keywork including the low Eb key is on the body and low Eb issues from the bell vent:
