Fitting a TerraLux TLE-310M-EX to an older (pre "D" prefix serial #) 5 cell Maglite

In reading the various reviews for this LED upgrade, some folks have indicated it won't function in the older D cell Maglites.
However, several others have mentioned a modification they did that WILL let it function reliably in these models.

Does anyone here know what the modification is, and could share some detail/instruction ? ... which would be greatly appreciated !

Older Mags have a deeper head I think. So probably need a spacer of some kind. Are you in the U.K. At all? As there are other drop ins available. I have a review that'll I'll probably post later this week.
