OK. That's what I will do also. Is the 2" Pear shaped Quick links Happy Diver mentioned above from GDX the ones to get?
It doesn't really matter too much. DGX stainless steel hardware has been just fine in my experience. The two things to look at are size (length of link and diameter of metal), and that it's stainless steel.

I agree with SlugMug, either one should work just fine. I always order these small $ items from DGX when I purchase other higher $ items.
 
Thanks for all the suggestions here! I have an OMS stainless steel BP and I got the Dive Rite Tech Butt Plate. Same as the others, the holes just don't quite line up, they are close but not enough. I'm going to give the quick links a try. But just curious, does the butt plate move around quite a bit? It seems like it would unless I'm missing something. Thanks

No, doesn't move for me. I do find that it tends to warp after some dives because mine hangs slightly lower than my tanks, so when I go to sit down it bends some. Not a big deal, I just bend it back.
