Retrofit fine adjustment screws on an RC?

After following Peters thread on nailing Collimation on his Alluna I took a look at both the Alluna site and the CFF site to see what they provide for adjusting secondary and main mirrors.

Am wondering if it would be possible to retrofit something like these on a GSO RC10? Or if not appropriate, what else could be used? I love my scope but fine tuning with the existing hex bolts or bobs Knobs could be a better experience.

If we can avoid the usual trolling that seems to take place whenever someone asks for a bit of help with this particular brand of RC that would be very much appreciated. Have used them for a few years now and whilst quirky, they product excellent images once understood.

What are the screws you're staying to replace ? picture ? size ?

You'll need digital callipers to find out what size they are, for a start.

Cheers NickWill dig one out of the scope during the week and check those measurements/ post piccies . Suspect some additional drilling might be needed though.
Don’t have digital, just regular vernier callipers and a set of thread gauges
