Went exactly this route and it works perfectly, I did add one wrap of 3M industrial grade electrical tape (home depot) and it helped that card fit rather tight and the dual-lock locked it in and it hasn't moved yet and those of us in news especially setting up live hits five minutes to air are not known for being to gentle with equipment.
If the express card was a bit thicker it would have a chance of holding but these things just don't hold at all.
This fix has held good, now if only fixing the live video streaming issues I have were as easy.
thanks again,
