You don't necessarily need to buy a mounting block, you just need a piece of wood that is bigger than your light fixture, and thicker than your siding, and the right depth for a box. Cut out the siding for your block, (leave the sheathing) drill a hole in your mounting block, install your mounting block, then install your box and light.
