I must be beyond ****** because I just mounted MKS clips to Sylvans and didn't even notice that I could do this!
It might give you a couple of mm's more clearance against toe-verlap(toe overlap).. maybe?
I'm going to try it, won't hurt!

On a hot, still morning she took off from Tunisia to bomb the southern tip of Italy. An errant piece of flak tore a hole in a wing tank and, like a wounded bird, this is where she landed, not to return on this day, or any other day.

They are meant to mount on the outside.
I don't know if your sylvans and my sylvans are different, but the clips would certainly not fit properly on the inside of mine.
