This worked out way better than I anticipated. I did not have to touch my UE towers. There is enough meat on that top boss for the screw that after changing to a button head, I was able reshape it to fit under the bottom cross piece on the UE tower. The front bulk was done in maybe 5 min using a sharp file. Since the rear bulk was already installed and I did not want to remove it, it took longer, maybe 15min since I had to be more careful not to let the file hit anything else.

The key was changing the socket head to a button head - that changed that areas profile so much it was not that big of a deal to reshape it from there to match th econtour under the UE tower.

Thanks again Serum for pointing that out!
