What's the mounting holes pattern for Superlite 2.0 / 150 / 175 heel plates?

I've had this boot in size 29 for several seasons and by now developed a deep and perhaps slightly unhealthy attraction to this item. Just yesterday, for fitness training, I booted over 6K vertical feet and it was way better than hiking in my regular hiking boots! Question: what should I use for a replacement liner? I love the original Scarpa liner but it can't last forever and the Scarpa replacement liner is unavailable. What's the closest? Thanks.

It looks like this pack does not have an option to A-carry the skis? There is no side straps, correct?

Just wanted to add a few observations regarding the fit of these boots. Enough was said about ski performance and I'm not a ski expert to add much on this subject. It was an emotion-driven purchase. My beloved LS Syborgs all of a sudden turned into torture device when some kind of bony protrusion grew on my foot and it gotten really painful after only a few hours of touring, especially when in a ski mode. I went to the ski shop to try to do something about, saw Alien RS, put them on and pulled out my cc! ...

I have this ski (G85, last year model) in 178cm length and have not mounted them yet as I started having doubts about the length. I'm 175cm tall, 165lbs. moderate skier. Do you think I'll have trouble on a skin track and with tight turns with this ski? My current ski is Hagan Y-Drive 170 cm and it works fine for me, just getting beat-up. You think 8 cm increase in length with G85 will make a big difference for me? My other option is to try to sell G85 at 178 cm length and get a 171cm version from you.
