MINI roof box attachment hardware

Anyone have a line on replacement hardware 'Slidning Block 87292444005" for the OEM MINI roof box?
They are available from vendors, but I can't stomach $10 each for a glorified screw.
TIA

Thule make some...

I just went into their spare parts site, and found these:

Just double check the sizes you need.

Those look pretty good. Trying to get the dimensions of the base to make sure it won't spin in the rack. Thx.

If it helps, I have this fairing from forever ago:

And I’m using the bolts with square washers from that kit in my OEM Mini rack.
