I understand I will have to very carefully file tabs on the bosses to allow the replacement bases to fit.

Was going to drill a pilot hole first through bosses into frame (figure the base of each boss will cover those) and then wanted to tap the bolt holes to allow use of the slightly fatter bolts that rest of my shifter choices have. If I predrill the bosses the tap shouldn't bottom out.

Does this make sense??
