I think this is what you need - I have the CGEM one, expensive but they work ...

This is the route I went for my Ioptron CEM25 some time last year...

However, I haven't been able to locate one available in Australia today so, not sure if they are still available... so, maybe not so helpful

Cheers

I went the ADM replacement saddle route: 10m Job. Easy.
Did it a few yrs ago (AZEQ6), very happy.

+1 ADM. I also did it with a CGEM. Beautiful sturdy saddle.

I adapted a Vixen Atlux head to hold a Losmandy side saddle bar using a Takahashi head - as the holes were in the exact position i Needed. I measured everything very carefully then got in contact with Bintel who checked it all ordered everything for me - worked a treat!
