[QUOTE="Torchepot, post: 3656287, member: 123265"] I found a couple of MENGS plates on amazon.uk [url]https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00K19EYL6/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE[/url] Actually I don't have enough issues lining up my existing tandem set-up, but if I start using it more I may get one. One thing I don't really understand is why you need the red/green sight? Surely with the two devices mounted in tandem the thermal imager will serve as the ultimate "target" locator? If it's just to help when lining up the scope on it's own - have you tried the cable tie sight? You can just see one on the first photo of my set-up (beside the stone face!) - I made a tiny hole in the stay-on case with a hot needle and fixed the tie to the scope. Took a little getting used to but it's so simple and one less thing to adjust - plus it weighs next to nothing and is virtually free! [/QUOTE]
