Default Wiper nozzles on VIS hood

I just installed a VIS CF hood on my EF , and i am having problems with the stock wiper nozzles fitting in the cf hood. It seems the stock nozzles are too big for the holes in the hood.

Just use a dremel and grind away slowly till they fit. I had the same problem, 5 min of dremel and they fit like a glove. I wish they didnt put any holes on the hood at all. I was pissed when i got the hood, I wasnt going to use any. Ive seen some hoods that dont have the holes. Oh well Also I had to grind quite a bit where the hood prop fits in to make the hood prop fit in well.
