Tempest Multigame - can't get daughterboard into 6502A socket!

Good morning,

I've finally gotten around to installing Clay's multigame kit into my Tempest. Unfortunately, the daughterboard for the 6502A processor will not go into the socket on the main board. No pins are bent, it just won't seat. I've tried seating the daughterboard into the included 22-pin socket with the kit, and it won't seat completely into that socket, either. Any one have recommendations on how to loosen up such a huge slot (no jokes please!)

Thanks,

M.O.
 
Not as urgent now..

Figured out I'm supposed to double-socket the thing, but it still won't go in ALL the way. Going to cut my losses since it works, but am still curious how one goes about resolving an issue like this, properly.
