Tour Pack Detach rack problem

Tour Pack Detach rack problem
I'm putting together my tour pack and detach kit. I installed the docking hardware to the bike, then I tried to attach the tour pack mount to it. The right side of the mount was tight but slipped in. The right side was so tight that it broke the plastic grommet on the rear doing point. I'm glad I haven't attached the tour pack to the mount yet, that would made this twice as hard.
Has this happened to anyone else? What was the fix?
Thanks ahead for you help.

I bought a new back rest (Taller) it did not want to fit the existing docking hardware where my old one did. Was messing with it tonight for an upcoming pre-flight trip. I had to put the new rest it on it side on the ground and give it a mild push to bend it inward (bending it slightly both sides) It went right on after that.
I do not think the backrests themselves are that dead on out of the box after experiencing this. It might help, so I mentioned it.

Mine was extremely tight the first go around. So I loosened everything and put the tour pack on while it was not cranked down to spec. Tightened things up with the TP on, detached it, tightened to spec, which wasn't much more, and put the tour pack back on. It's still really tight, but I guess I'd prefer it tight with no movement or vibration than the other option. Good Luck.
