I've just bought (waiting for) some XT brakes - (I-spec EV) to replace some Srams

I currently have this shifter (presumably EV) fixed via a Wolftooth EV/MM mount and a Hope dropper lever fixed somehow, can't remember what I used

Any other bits that came with the shifter will be long gone, so first question is, what will I need to fix the shifter to the brakes?

Second question - can anyone recommend an EV brake to Hope dropper adaptor?

I've been looking and my head has expolded.

Thanks

Thanks - but the 2nd one says tech 4 to EV - suggesting it's for Hope brakes??

Apologies.having a look at the dropper, it looks like something like the OneUp Shimano adaptor would work.

Also this one from Bike Yoke. Chap mentioned it on a review of the dropper in the Bike Tart website.
