Interestingly, just working this same mod on my 2015.
Grinding the hold nice and neat is no problem I think, but surely the shield needs to be held in place/fixed, and as the shear bolt does not make contact with the barrel, that's an issue.

BTW, I talked to Foundary4x4 today, they had no good solution, and suggested returning the unit if you have a 2015 model.

Cheers,

Looking for advice fitting this, has everyone fitted it with the light switch and indicator stalk wires running at left hand side underneath the x-eng column lock where the transmitter thing sits or moved the cables to right hand side of steering column?

When I did mine, the cables stayed on the left but the energiser ring ended up cable tied to the bottom of the steering column. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of the completed installation but there's a few more details in my thread here: https://www.defender2.net/forum/post783667.html#783667 Darren
