So here are the details first:

Headlight: Mini Cooper R56
Projector: Morimoto Mini H1
Shroud: Mini Gatling (only one that will fit)
Bulb Base: H7

Here is my problem, the light is so cramped in there the easy way to mount the Mini H1 isn't working. there just doesn't seem to be enough room. The lens comes down and rubs on the shroud and there is a lot of room after the shroud that is noticeable. Here is a picture:

Notice where mine sits:


I was thinking about slicing the back side of the reflector and making "extensions" to pull it back and jb weld the extension part so I could keep the mounting. I'm sorta clueless though on what to do because that is why I bought the Mini H1's because of ease of install.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
