Bill - you're looking for Bosch RA1126 Quick Change Template Guide Adapter - they are available on Amazon Canada

https://www.amazon.ca/Bosch-RA1126-Change-Template-Adapter/dp/B005HPUP80

I cannot find a listing on Amazon.com and CPOTools.com shows them out of stock.

Edit: Sorry, I reread your post and you mentioned the quick change adapter - that is the RA1126,
but you also mention guide bushings - they are the RA1125. That's a 7 piece set (I have them, purchased fro CPO Tools last year) but they show them out of stock.

Amazon.com has them but listed at $140 (which is crazy) - https://www.amazon.com/Bosch-RA1125...osch+RA1125+7-Piece+Router+Template+Guide+Set

Amazon.ca has them at $48.90 Canadian - https://www.amazon.ca/Bosch-RA1125-...coding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=4MEQS7MDD2M8MP2719F1

Here's the 8 piece set, which includes the quick change adapter on Amazon.com which is a lot cheaper (don't understand the discrepancy)

You could also replace the base plate with one the accepts the PC guides.
Amazon sell a kit for Bosch that has all you need including an adapter to except PC guides about 35.00

The kit in the picture is the bayonet mount that is made of steel and fits directly on the 1617. It requires no adapter. However, brass is the preferred material, and that material isn't available in the bayonet mount. So, you have to have the adapter, plus a second mount that fits in the adapter to use the Porter Cable bushings that are more of a standard and available in brass. I got my adapters from Bosch direct. Phone in your order to make sure you get the exact parts.

I know I'm a day late and a dollar short on responding to this, but in case anyone else is interested, you can get the template guide adapter here Bosch Template Guide Adapter / QC | Klingspor's Woodworking Shop for $8.95 plus tax and shipping and you can use Porter Cable guide bushings. This is what I do. Like Tom said, brass is better.
