Ok folks...here's a quick how to on what I did to mine.

You will need a 6 X 50mm bolt with 1" pitch and a flat washer which you can buy at Ace Hardware for a buck or two.

The modified length of the CGS support arm on mine is around 5 1/4" from the top weld to the tip end by where the bolt goes into the head. I measured down approximately 2 1/4" from the top and put a new bend in the arm as you will see in the photos below. Then once I was happy with that bend, I marked it so I could cut off the part that overlapped over the head and cut that off with a hacksaw. I then marked where the new bolt hole had to be drilled a new hole for that.

I didn't have a vice to bend it with, so I pulled out my boyfriends hydraulic jack and put the arm in between the metal pieces and carefully bent it where I had marked it. Crude...yes, but effective.

Here's the photos I just took so you can get an idea of what it looks like. Hope this helps the 2.2L owners. Not professionally done, but a girl has got to do what a girl has to do. Another mod done by little ole me.
