Exclamation connecting a Sony DSLR to a Celestron nexstar 4!!!???

Can anybody give me a hand? I want to connect my 55mm Sony alpha DSLR to my 4" Celestron Nexstar. The telescope has an extra opening and flip mirror at the end of the tube to attach a 35mm DSLR but Celestron doesn't make any mention of t-adapters or T-rings for 55mm cameras. I'm hoping I wont have to settle for afocal photography and instead was wondering if anybody knows the best way to attack this problem!

My current thinking is to by a 35mm T-adapter from Celestron and a 55mm T-ring from Sony and hope that some clever sod out there has made an adapter socket that fits these two things together...
