Never done it personally, but plenty of people go the bastard pack route.

I think someone was selling them here for 40$ plus shipping.

Ahhh. As stated, it's called a bastard pack. Yes it'll work. There are a few different ways to approach it. Just do a search...Good luck.

I know you can use some of the leaves from the s10 but idk if you can just bolt it in, the center pin may be different.
