Each user could then drill two holes to match their own master cylinder, and fix with counter sunk set screws? There is no need to ensure a vacuum seal, so as long as the screws are seated below the face there will be no problem.

Is anyone interested in this option?

I don't know what the cost would be, but if I can get 10-15 made locally they shouldn't be too expensive in self colour.
Count me in for a 'univesal' adaptor plate.

Thanks to Mike for pursuing the idea and to Jason for finding the source and for the trial and testing phase. Well done!!
