Replacement Bar Mount Assembly for Older Thule Hullavator 897

Question

Question:

I have a hullavator that is about 12-15 years old. I need a replacement bar mount for it. Can you advise? Currently the hullavator is mounted to the rectangular/square bars that I added to my 2010 Toyota Highlander roof rack.
