Can't mount IWC TMC light mount on Midlength A2 style handguard?

Recommended Posts

Got my AR today and I'm trying to mount an IWC TMC light mount onto the handguard except I can't seem to get the mounting plates to touch the screws through the heatshield.  Should I modify the heatshield it, or did I perhaps order the wrong hardware (I forget if I order hardware for Milspec or standard commercial handguard)?
Its a Delton Upper with just a single heatshield so I don't see why the screws shouldn't fit.|
EDIT: Just modified the heat shield a bit and its all good

Can't you just remove the heat shield, install the light mount, then replace the heatshield? Every set of standard plastic hand guards for an AR I have seen had the ability to remove the heat shields....

I tried, but with the hardware installed the heatshields would not mount back in.
