Trans dapt also makes a set, tried both, neither worked as advertised. I knew better, but thought I might get lucky. Some say that thye have gotten them to fit as advertised, but definately the minority.

I forgot all about S&P, they are really good at fabbing up goodies for a swap like that , i'm looking at their catalog right now and they've got a couple of different style mounts you might be able to use.
