Have you measured the difference between the 2? if it's not much a big clamp and lots of sealant should do the trick

Its a 1/4 inch difference, that would take quite a bit of sealant  :laugh:

I've got someone making something for me today  :cool:

Are you sure I could do you a deal on some sealant :grin:
How much is that costing, out of interest?
