What I did instead was to 3d model a new bracket that would give me about an extra inch of extra room, printed it using a 3d printer, and reassembled the charger cradle with the printed component.

Result: it works! The design is not perfect but I fixed my biggest issue with the car. Posting pictures to show the end result. Thanks!

EDIT: I have posted detailed instructions on the removal and install of this bracket here: https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1534787

If anyone wants this part, you can purchase it here https://www.shapeways.com/product/XY...ionId=70892401
The link for the part doesn't seem to work for me. Any chance to post a new link or attach the file to print?
