ISO GoPro / Garmin attachment

Hoping someone here can help me find a part that I’ve been unable to locate after thoroughly searching — it’s a piece that attaches to the GoPro mount of a K-Edge out-front mount (so it would have two ”ears” that would fit inside the three “ears” of the K-Edge mount, with a screw running through them), but the bottom has a Garmin quarter-turn mount to enable attachment of a Garmin UT800 light. Basically, I want to mount my Garmin light to the bottom of my K-Edge Garmin computer mount (which has a Go-Pro mount on the bottom) and retain quick release functionality for the light. I was hoping to find a Garmin or K-Edge version (or otherwise higher quality piece) but the only thing I’ve been able to find so far is a cheapo 3-D printed piece on eBay. Maybe my search terminology is just off for what I’m looking for. Anybody have a lead on this piece? Thanks!

But maybe I'm not understanding totally.

Assuming your K-edge support a bottom mount with the 2 screws and your Garmin Light has the 2 Prongs like this:


Most likely this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/37454912673...3ABFBMuPWM4eJh



K-Edge calls that their 'combo' mounting interface and make/made quite a few mounts that either came with the bottom piece or were compatible with the bottom piece linked above:
https://k-edge.com/product-category/combo-mounts/

Overall, if your K-Edge mount has unused mounting holes on the bottom like this, you can use their bottom combo mount to mount your light.

If your K-edge doesn't have those mounting holes you might as well buy a complete mount from them and move your existing mount to a second bike or sell it.

Appreciate the help, but I’m not seeing the thing I need yet. It’s hard to explain in words, so I’ll try pictures. I have the Garmin quarter-turn mount for the UT800 (pictured), which slots into the UT800 and provides a quick release functionality but needs a Garmin “male” faceplate to twist onto. So I need something that has the Go-Pro ears on one side that will slot into the highlighted K-Edge combo mount and then has the Garmin plate on the other side. The UT800 could just slot directly into the K-Edge combo mount but I would need to unscrew it to take it off.

Is this what you're looking for? It's on Shapeways from The Revolutionaries (WheresWaldo on Weightweenies). I have some of his other mounts and they are well designed.
