This is what I've done to my WRX. I'm working on a step-by step with pictures of how to cut and re-glue the tabs lower.

One tip I can give you: Be careful to superglue into the correct position the first time, otherwise you'll weaken the plastic everytime you re-glue it, and it will look like crap eventually.

Also, the pressure on the new tab may be more then it was before, so you might want to sahve a bit of plastic off the end when you cut it, to make sure that the tab doesn't break off. (Eric re-reads his post and scratches his head, wondering if it makes sense... Meh)
