<on hold music, "Girl from Ipanema" plays softly>

I trust it's the definitive Stan Getz version from "The Bossa Nova Years"
album!  That may be my all-time favorite jazz collection, and it helps keep
me "cool" when working on my cars.  I see you use the same trick.  It also
helps to play it when reading the Bentley . . .

I've got the same problem.  I have not looked at what it would take to
enlarge those holes in the body, but maybe there is a plate under them that
you can remove and do the job if you can't adjust it enough.

I'll wait for you to try it.  Just don't enlarge the holes in the plate!

If that doesn't work you can cut off the latch post and weld it on where you
need it!
