You can also acquire a couple of Elinchrom-made Profoto-Elinchrom adapters. Not ideal for heavier boxes, but readily available used. We've one for sale.

The Eli speeding is large vs. Profoto's, as are the light openings. A Profoto speedring with the collar lock tab removed will readily slide thru the opening of a Eli speedring. It allows for a lot of DIY mods to mount Profoto lights using Eli rings.
So, an option is to get some low-cost Profoto-compatible ring inserts and:
1 remove Profoto lock tab or entire rubber ring w/tab
2. slide them thru the center of the Eli inserts you have now from the 'inside' - out.
3. center & drill 3-4 small holes thru both
4. pop-rivet or bolt them together with some small machine screws and lock-nuts.
5. re-install Profoto lock tabs or rubber collar
We've done in past and works perfectly fine - and saves a lot of $$. If removed for sale, the 3 little holes are of no issue.
