If so carefully remove them with a small file and make sure you clean out all the filings with spray cleaner before reassemble. Hopes this helps.

Similar situation. I bought a repro and could not even get it to fit in its enclosure, let alone slip it into place. I promptly returned it and bought a used original from the dreaded ebay. It was 5$ less than the repro!
Installed fine and has been working great ever since.
