Thanks for all the input gents.
Just one more stupid question! Can the CG5 saddle plate be replaced with a Losmandy saddle plate...so i can use the Losmandy dovetails?
I'm looking at:

Item GM8 SP
GM-8 saddle plate http://www.losmandy.com/gm8sp.gif
Can be mounted to other mounts for use with GM-8 dovetail plates.
Wt. 10 oz. Size .75"x 3.5"x 3.5" Two mounting holes 3.0" sep. for 1/4" shcs
Any thoughts on this type of fix?
