Not sure if they will work with that setup.  Take a look at the T-Stick from Ultimarc.

E-mail OSCAR - It's possible with that set-up if you can accurately drill the locating holes for the plates.  However, keep in mind that OSCAR ships his template plate with 1/4-inch fasteners to eliminate the "play" with 3/16-inch fasteners and you see how critical this is.

Another solution is the Omni-Stik (or Prodigy) from www.groovygamegear.com, or the J-Stik, T-Stik or E-Stik from www.ultimarc.com
