Guiding Mount?

Has anyone used the TGM-2 guiding mount on the side of an NJP saddle plate? I read that the TGM-2 will bolt to the flange on the mounting plate but am concerned about balance with an FS-78 and TGM-2 hanging on one side of the scope.

Would it be better to use the Tak 100mm guidescope rings (Part #TGR0100) on the top plate of the dual tube ring set up?

Thank you for the help!
