Hi,
I think you could use the silver clamps of STX-RC shifter pods, or those of a certain series of LX pods too.
Think I have a set of plastic Magura mounts in the parts box for that purpose that I haven't got round using, so could see if I can dig them out, if you're interested.

Theres two types of clamp and the associated shifters are not really compatible without a bit of faffness
The original 7spd rapid fire from the XT, DX and very early black LX will not fit the later STX/ ST-RC/ Alivio mounts.
The older shifters have locating pins that are different to later clamps. You can try and just bolt them together but you run the risk of the shifter twisting around.

I indeed have the Magura ones that are in the thread LGF is referring to.
Let me know if these suit your needs.

Re:
It depends on how much you want for them and whether it’s worth the ‘faffness’ to make them fit. I reckon I could get them to work but they don’t appear to have locating pins for the holes in the shifter which as said may be an issue. My only other alternative route would be a project for a mate with a 3D printer.
