I often drive/test/race a 1947 race car that is designed for narrow tall people, It has had many mods over the years to stop people banging into things or not able to fit round things. (ok so the hand brake is a vertical fly jobbie in the footwell, which I struggle to reach..... but theres an idea for my car!! )
If you have a hammer big enough, you can make it fit, so just get a mate to twat you on the head with a mallet until you are snug enough lol
