Replacement Hardware for the Thule Summit Cargo Box

Question

Question:

I have an older Thule Summit that needs to have its mounting hardware replaced. Specifically the plastic feet that mount inside the box. They have 3 mounting holes. My question is: Are those plastic feet that come in the QMS TH04997 kit for Thule adventurer the same as the mounting feet for the Thule Summit? They look the same, but unsure of the mounting holes will line up perfectly.
