Coyote Pedal Mount Mod - Slot Top Hole and Grind Right Side?

[32J]

Okay, I've read as many posts as I could find on modifying the Coyote pedal so that it can be 1) installed through the labyrinth of steel, and 2) not interfere with the drive shaft when installed on the provided mounting plate. I've done all that and I still have the top bolt ear of the pedal interfering / rubbing the steering shaft. Just wondering if anyone has (or has heard of) someone trying the following:

1) Slotting the top hole of the mount,
2) Grinding the right side of the mount (and shaving / sanding / grinding excess plastic from the right side of the pedal), and
3) Rotating the mount and pedal CW in order to get maybe an extra 1/16 or 1/8 clearance between the bolt ear and the drive shaft.

I also want to make sure that the wiring can still clip into the top of the pedal without hitting the vertical web of the pedal box.

Thanks!
