SPC Camber Plate Issue????

I got a great deal on a set of SPC camber plates, so I installed them yesterday afternoon. I found 2 issues that I am trying to figure out.

1) cannot adjust to max negative camber of -2 due to not being able to tighten 2 of the 4 hex head screws down due to being under the strut tower. I thought about swapping out the hex heads for a standard 8 mm bolt which would allow me the room to tighten the 2 bolt.

2) the adjustment tab on the top of my Komi sports is hitting the top plate stopping it from going to max negative camber. I figured I could file this down slightly as it is barely hitting.

I am curious if anyone else has had any similar issues when installing camber plates? Thanks

I have these, seems like the adjuster on the Koni is an issue when mocking up. A stock or non-adjustable shock should fit fine it seems.

I have Konis. If no one buys them soon I'm going to have to start cutting crap up.
