You can always remove the existing screw, then use a stud screw and a couple of jamming nuts. I know this method is introducing additional components but it's a quick/temporary fix without grinding anything.

Essentially you are building a spacer to raise the connection above the plastic fins. Might have to use more than one jamming nut, or maybe some sort of copper pipe spacer/washers.

Some of the binding posts you can buy can also screw into the existing hole. Just by removing the bottom nut that normally jams them against the chassis. Actually, I think Mitchell makes some for this very purpose, but I cannot find any pics for you on the internet.

See my (top view) drawing attached as attempt to explain.

Cheers,
