EZ 42 gunsight position in FW-190 - Jaws2002 - 11.12.2007

In our FW-190 the gyro sight (ez42) is sitting quite a bit too low.
Is there a way to raise the sight and point of view a bit?

Here is a pic I found some time ago on the great "falkeeins" website:

Author's explanation for the picture: "In the second picture below Engst is seen climbing up into the cockpit -note the EZ 42 gyroscopic sight above the instrument panel."



As you can see in this picture the upper side of the leather covered part of the sight is clearly above the top of the control panel.
I think the gunsight is over an inch higher then in the game.

Could be something done about that? Does anyone have more info as to how high was this device mounted in the FW-190? In our FW-190 the gyro sight (ez42) is sitting quite a bit too low.
Is there a way to raise the sight and point of view a bit?
