You may now proceed to fit (fight) and install the kick panel.

Okay, Dan. I took a look at the pillar and it's really easy to remove the nut assembly from the cage. I can't imagine how you had enough room to get it back in the cage, much less put a piece of aluminum as a backer, but I will give it a shot!
Thanks for the help! I'll let you know how it goes.
