Bolting down new toilet, from 4 bolts to 2 bolts.

Old, low rise toilet has 4 bolt flange, the flange is glued in and non-removable. New high rise toilet has 2 bolts and old flange will not work.
I've purchased a new 2 bolt flange with a removable bolt holder. Do you think I can screw a new bolt holder to an old flange and get a good seal? Any other ideas or options are welcome.
Unfortunately, we had no idea the bolt system was different when we bought the toilet.

All 3 replies are good information. I didn't know there was an adapter. I knew I'd get good suggestions on the Forum. Thanks

Are you sure its glued?

Take a hammer and punch or screwdriver and see if it will not unscrew.

There is an adaptor you can buy to convert to two bolt setup. Check with www.pplmotorhomes.com part department or a local RV supply store.
