Brake caliper mounting question..

[Matt93SE]

So I'm working on installing a set of aftermarket calipers on my car, and the mounting ears on the stock spindle are in the way. i.e. the factory mounting tabs run into the body of the caliper when I straddle the tabs with the ones on the caliper. (I can provide a photo if needed.)

In order to fit the planned rotor and caliper, I need to cut off one or both of the existing mounting ears and attach a different mounting scheme.

9.1.4.O.10 says:

Brake calipers, whether OEM or aftermarket, shall be mounted in the stock locations.

I still plan to mount the caliper in the stock location relative to the spindle/rest of the car, but it won't be mounted to the stock bolt holes on the spindle.

Before I get out the bandsaw and TIG, is this okay?
