Anyone find these apron brackets too small? For my Centaur, they seem to be about 1/8 too short to mate up to the apron mounting holes. Is there a better source? Thanks!

Quoted from Xenon75:

Is the new playfield thicker than the original? The new wood plus the multiple layers of clearcoat is usually enough to make the difference you are seeing.

It's a CPR pf - I thought that might be too but measuring the old and new, they are both exactly the same 1/2". If I had a proper workshop, I'd just make them, but I don't. Anyone else know of a taller bracket?

There's exactly 1/8" metal between the hole and the edge of the bracket. I might try to elongate the hole a bit. It's a good suggestion, I didn't feel there was enough there, but I'll try this approach and see.
