Skywatcher 8" Dob and Mounting Telrad

I'm wondering if anyone has the same issue I have here.

As the focuser baseplate and finderscope baseplate are quite close together, mounting the Telrad in between the two is really not gonna work as Ive seen it done on other Dobs'

Im wondering in what position others have mounted there's in this situation.

I guess really It doesn't need to be mounted right on the front of the scope, but somewhere thats comfortable to lean over and see through.
Already I need to lean over the Dob to look through the finderscope with my right eye.

Thanks
