Neil, re the felt pads placed between the mirror box outside and rocker box inside will prevent excess side to side movement. The alt bearing itself will need to be surfaced with some laminex and then glide on teflon pieces attached to the rockers.
I went to the local Laminex Group warehouse and managed to get some nice discontinued laminate . I also scored a half sheet of discontinued post forming laminate in black. Total cost: $40.-
The post-forming laminate is actually just under 0.8mm so about half the weight of normal laminates. I will be getting the belt sander out and taking another 10th off it and then will use it for the UTA light baffle.
Regarding your alt bearings, if you still get too much flex in them, try a wider piece between the two sides.
