Thanks for your question James!
No need for a whole new system, we have exactly what you need! Part # RP58527 will work with your # RP66558. Resee only offers them in a four pack because they will also work on the higher capacity systems like # RP66560 that uses two pads per bar so would need all four of them.
Let me know if you have any more questions, James. I'm here to help!
