Bringing this thread back, so I finally got around to installing the mount, and it doesn't fit. It needs at least another 1/2inch of clearance to fit in there. The tabs where it mounts to the body where the jack was are not long enough and they hit. Anyone else have this problem?

Not my problem, I can't even get it to sit in place where it is supposed to.
