Recommended T-Slot Kit for a Thule Big Mouth 599 Bike Rack

Question

Question:

Hi, I have the Thule Evo Wingbar and 2x Thule 599OE Big Mouth™ Upright Bike Racks. I am trying to get a fitkit that will allow the racks to slide into the T-slots on the wingbar. Please let me know if there are any options. I am not sure if this is the same as the Big Mouth XTR which I found a kit for. Thanks in advance!
