That's what I am hoping for.  I can break out the mini grinder and adjust it.  It would just be nice to have the correct size of the hole before I start.

It's been years since I replaced our '87's antenna and it came out without issue. Sounds like that hole is too small but someone else will report with measurements, no doubt.
