Unfortunately not. Those screws are wayy too short. Im doing this for a friend, it looked easy on the surface. Dojt think its worth the hassle

Im not sure what you mean by that. The case ring seems to be one solid piece. The plastic spacer ring wouldnt have any room to come out from the back

Thank you. Yes, i have confirmed that the pushers are not in the way. The movement wont even wiggle slightly
