My wheel rubbed - what I did was to put a thin washer between the cover
post and the adapter screws. That spaced the cover out the thickness of
the washer and eliminated the rubbing. As to the turn signal arm - take
it out of the car and clamp the flat part in a vise and CAREFULLY bend
it, pushing on the end and near the vise... isn't difficult at all.
Hope this helps
