What I want to do is to cut bulk by using a 21 ( most likely lens setting) and 15 (Widest lens setting, CV) finders and not have to switch them out. The Frankenfinder is my backup if I can not find the double holder.... As you know, quite bulky. Alternative backup is a single 18mm finder and mentally allow for the VF "error".... Until this week, I did not have an 18 finder.

There is a Thumbs Up model CSEP-4S that has a more than 1.5 inch spacing...and has a thumb grip as well.... Works for anything : Zeiss, Cosina or Leica or any mix and match.... Life is good.... Cosina Spacing is 1.22 inches.... Will work only for 2 Leica finders. Mix or match with Cosina or Zeiss will not work. DAG model has spacing of just a bit over 1 inch... will not work for any 2 Finders.... For the record.... Zeiss Finders are 1.25 inches wide Leica are 1.125 Cosina are almost 1.5 Do not have the spacing for the Cosina "bar".... Frank Filippone Red735i at verizon.net DAG can make you one for $75 with two real Leica shoes. See his site. The CV one has gotten insanely expensive. I may have a plastic one somewhere.
