And another 450D cold finger build

Another thread with another 450D cold finger build. I am using the proven cold finger design but without the step.

First of all I will need to give credit to the people who already "walked this path" and who did all the designing and testing and put everything on IIS. It makes the lives of people who follow much easier. Thank you guys.

To start with a question... did you cut the tab on the LH side of the DSLR back, just above where the cold finger exits? I have more-or-less finished the copper cold finger but the back of the camera cannot be closed. There is about 1cm wide tab which hits the cold finger. Marked red in photo 4 and shown without the cold finger in photo 5.

What am I missing? Are all 450Ds identical?
