Description
There are not a lot of options for the LGX shortcut and the ender 5 Plus. I really like this mount for my Ender 3 V2. Its very solid and works well so wanted to mount it to my Ender 5 Plus. I tried making my existing ender 3 mount work by cutting and drilling and did get it bolted up but had some clearance issues with the Z risers. This remix raises the extruder 6mm higher to clear the Z risers, adds a recess for the ender 5 belt, and I also modified the hole locations so its a direct bolt on to the stock plate. Due to the extruder size a front cross bar relocation is required so it does not collide with the crossbar. Lowering the crossbar is nice for viewing anyway. I used this one:

The mount uses assorted button head M3 screws. I will update the required lengths once I print and install. This "May" work on an Ender 5 or Ender 5 Pro but I cant guarantee as I dont have one to test.
Lastly, print on its back you will probably need to use a little bit of supports for the belt recess but the back holes should be fine without if your bridging is dialed in.
