[A4] meyle heavy duty TRE question

[thejimrose]

anyone have trouble getting the meyle heavy duty TRE to fit right in
the b5 a4 upright?

when installing mine, the tre post would not move far enough into the
upright receptacle to allow the bolt to pass through - the 'notch' in
the tre post was too high. i tightened the adjusting nut VERY tight to
pull the post into the upright but still was WAY off - the notch was
about 1/2 exposed in the bolt hole. no bueno.

had to file the notch to enlarge it, got it to work, but not real
confident in the fix.

TIA
jim
