Anyone have a Touratech TFT brace fitted with an MRA Vario-X-Creen windscreen (VXCS)?

I am trying to fit the above brace to my 1250GS and have the above after-market screen. I can see no way that it's possible. The brace design is not compatible with the screen supports. It looks like I'll have to choose one or the other, which is fine. I have spoken to TT and sent photos and await their verdict. Is there anyone out there that has done so? Or am I being a bit thick?

I have a similar issue with my Puig screen with twin supports & the Touratech TFT brace with visor..

I didn't think about it when ordering & wanted the twin supports as my previous Givi single sided support wasn't particularly solid. Looks like I will make a bracket up to mount the brace to, but I have the kit here (lathe, mill, guillotine etc) to make something.

My 2020 GS had a Cymarc TFT brace which worked fine (well the second one they sent did..) with the Givi, but I wasn't going to risk that again.

Funny, I’ve been puzzling through this myself and drawn a blank. The screen support brackets have captive nuts, suggesting they need to be the most inboard item, but that seems to block the (even loose) fitting of the TFT brace. Longer bolts and a second set of nuts may help but the TFT brace is too wide for that

My screen supports were fitted by a PO so not sure who made them (screen is an MRA WVM.KBA 90512, which I’m not even seeing on their website)

I have a couple of ideas in relation to resolving the situation and one involves finding someone to do some drilling in metal and bashing it about a bit for me. Here we go.....................................................
