Default HSW solenoid bracket problem

I'm installing a nitrous system on my friends car, 2000 trans am and he has these http://www.harrisspeedworks.com/shop...cat=372&page=1

The problem is the nitrous solenoid bracket hits the cruise control cable. I've looked for pictures of the sudden impact kit installed with the small noid brackets and with his cruise control setup and haven't found any. Any info would be appreciated.

Mine did the same thing, just need to bend it and it goes right on. I took the cables off and moved them out of the way, bolted the braket down to the intake, mounted the solenoid, and moved it to where it wouldnt hit the cables. I dont have any good pictures of it though.

Thanks that might do the trick. I was also thinking of notching the side where it rubs the cable.

Mine bent enough so it doesnt rub on it. I just bent the driver side equally so they matched.
