Unhappy Baader / Explore Scientific finder Mount

Hey there,

I am a totally newby and have purchased an ED80 Explore scientific. The scope appears to come with unique finder mount which is incomparable with standard dovetail mounts (unless i am missing something).

I have done a fair bit of googling and others appear to have purchased a Baader dovetail base which appears to replace the one that comes with the explore scientific.

So… does anyone have one of these in Australia, know of someone who sells them or has an alternate solution?

Thanks in advance for any support.
