Need BlackMagic parts

Ok,
So I'm trying to be frugal and building up my mini as I go. One of the first things I bought was a top handle. Then I found a shoulder mount used with no handle. Wow! Fortunate? Next I get the viewfinder. OoooPs, not so fortunate. By buying the handle separate I did not get a mounting screw and additional plate for the top handle that comes with the full shoulder mount kit.
Question;
Is there any way to purchase just the two parts I need from BlackMagic? I really don't want to go back and dump another $400 on a new shoulder mount kit. Been surfing GooGoo for a parts list or separate parts with no luck. It's not a crises as I found a 1/4 20 that was long enough to secure the evf and with a small enough head for the top handle to clear but to adjust the eve forward and backward I have to use an allen key.

You can order spare parts from most vendors. Was faced with a similar situation. Managed to order just the parts I needed for the EVF.

I'll give that a shot by calling a couple of vendors. Looking at Adorama and B&H they have nothing listed on their websites.
Thank you!!

Contact BMD support. They might have it in their inventory of small parts and can sell it to you.

For mine (I prefer to buy a small rig Handle with more holes and rods), I build a simple brick of abs with 3d printer and add a simple screw to fix it.
I found that naval screw use witsworth pass like video making and you found every length you need.
Original Blackmagic Design is good but one piec equipment, I prefer a more modular equipment to put easy in backpack (yes I just had a big big back pack which is also trolley for my ursa).

URSA EVF 1/4 Thumbscrew and the URSA EVF Mounting Plate is what you are after if you just have the top handle and need the parts to mount the Viewfinder itself.

Besides original BMD parts, I like to use Tilta and Smallrig for rigging. In the photo below, I use a smallrig plate on the side which has a NATO rails and it’s great giving me also additional holes for attachments and also a rosette so I can move the BMD handle for there for easy handheld. The monitor rig is also smallrig. I also have a fin to hold 2 v-mount batts.

Thank you! Am trying to source them.
Edit::::
That did the trick. Having the proper names brought up plenty of places to purchase them.
Again.... Thank you!!!

@Tim Schumann, How do i obtain a few new knobs of the Ursa UB1 / UB2 ? Have 2 cracked Menu knobs ( Those that turn ) and 1 audio knob Ch2/4.. Seems these knobs are under stress and split down the middle in time.
Out of 3 UB cameras got 3 knobs go split now..

Maybe someone on here can print rubber dials for the URSA bodies. BM sent me some replacement ones some time ago.

is it possible to get the rubber protection that goes from the usb plug over the side of the viewfinder, the one that has 4 screws
