Anyone made a symbol/footprint for Sparkfun Micromod carriers?

 

Hello,

I'm designing a board for a remote data logging application and I'd like to use the Sparkfun LTE GNSS board that hosts the uBlox SARA-R5 module.

Does anyone have a symbol and footprint that for the connector on the carrier board that this module would plug into?? I'm finding some apparent discrepancies between the connector they call out on their website and what seems to be actually used.

Thanks
Doug

Sorry Gene, I was attempting to start a new discussion.
Is there more context required? I'll expand a bit more in case that's helpful.

If you are not familiar with the "MicroMod" system it combines a board edge-connector/socket with one or two female-threaded stand-offs. The footprint would contain the socket, the stand-off(s) in the correct place and an outline to designate the size of the board that's installed. Ideally the BOM would know that this footprint contains more than one part.
