    If you can get in closer with the shots (maybe use a tripod?) it will be easier to examine.

    I feel confident that you will get this sorted. Many issues arise from bridges, shorts, or grounding issues.

    Bummer about the screws, by the way.

    I routed around the cavity on my IB-5 so the cover sits flush. That was a nerve-wracking job!
    I left green/white as they were out off the box. Are you referring to it possibly contacting a wire other than the sheild?

    Routing? I feel nervous just thinking about it!
