Take a look at the adapter that HP sells:
http://store.scanjet.com/scanjet/slide_ad.asp
If you're handy, you should be able to figure out how it works.
There's even a manual at:
http://store.scanjet.com/scanjet_assets/hpslide.pdf
The adapter is basically two mirrors at a right angle that direct
the light from the scanner's own lamp up over the slide and then
through it from above.
I pasted 2 mirrors on the inside of a cut-up milk carton, and it
works.  You have to move it around a bit until you get an evenly
lit field.

Enjoy!
