For mine I made two rectangular plates from 10mm thick, (approx 3/8") Aluminium.
Each plate has two holes that match the rack mount.
The two plates measure 10mm thick x 20mm wide x 96mm long.
Two 8.5mm holes at 76mm centres.
The four M8 bolts will need to be 10mm longer than standard.
Sorry, I can't remember how long the standard bolts are.

regards,
Tony,

...Allow Me,
The Stock Rack Mount 8mm bolts are 70mm Long, so You'll have to go to 80mm, with shims installed. The pitch is 1.25mm. ONE word of Caution!! The Torque on these Bolts is Only 20 ft/lbs!! Strip these threads and You'll have to cut a Hole in the Trunk Floor to Replace the Nuts!...
