Donnie has the 12x12 bennets,wired to console, but not on..took them off for the restoration and with a bracket in place the cylinders do not fit. its a well discussed topic i see here on CSC, so gonna mull it over before I drill any holes. options i see-

-move to inner strake not ideal but see some have done on site
-outer strake and call bennett about a shorter cylinder they make 2 lengths, maybe can make custom shorter
-outer strake and cut hole in bracket
-toss aside and go volvo ql system

I am not gonna remove the bracket if that is entailed in cutting a hole. Probably call Bennett first with a measurement and take it from there.
