Will other brands of roller pot mounting plates fit a Warmoth Jazzmaster?

So I know a lot of Warmoth stuff isn't compatible with other brands, including Fender itself. I'm almost finished with my Jazzmaster build, but I forgot to buy a roller pot mounting plate. I want to get some stuff that I can't get at Warmoth, and it would feel silly to pay for shipping for a single mounting plate. Are they all likely the same size?

Btw, the roller pot knobs I got from Warmoth didn't fit on the roller pots themselves? And now they are no longer selling the pots? I guess the sizes weren't specified, but I really assumed the two would fit together, given they only offered one size pot and one set of knobs. Taking them off the website sounds like they're trying to cover up, but I sent an email asking about it.

In my experience the mounting plates seem to be universal. There's two common shaft diameters for the roller pots though; metric is 6mm, and imperial/U.S. spec is smaller, maybe 1/8". Whichever size you pot you get you need to get rollers with the corresponding size holes.

Good luck! Jazzmaster partscasters are a bit of a rabbit hole, but now that's it's completed I'm loving mine
 
The Jazzmaster roller mounting bracket Warmoth sells is Fender part 005-4454-049, however, we re-drill the holes here on-site to accommodate more conventionally available 1/4" pots.
