Does this exist?
I have a guitar with a single dog ear P90, and I wanna drop in a mini humbucker. Does anyone make a mounting ring for this?

I don't think I've ever seen something like that, although doog once made a similar thing to mount a strat pickup in jazzmaster. It looked pretty good too.

You could make a dog-ear mounting ring for a mini humbucker out of a dogear cover easy. Mini humbucker rings are soapbar P90 covers, that's how they came about (on the first ever LP reissues now known as "Deluxes" they routed the bodies for P90s before realizing more people liked the '57-'60 humbuckered Les Pauls). A minihum in cover fits perfectly into a dogear/soapbar route, there's just extra holes if it was for a dogear.
Certain old Gibson Juniors actually had soapbar body-mounted pickups with a dogear cover just screwed to the body over them. Juniors were kinda "leftover bit" guitars, especially once standards/customs got PAFs.
