There are two spacers for the shaft, one on either side of the sheet metal.
Since the shaft is not at a right angle to the sheet metal (it is at a
right angle to the windscreen) the spacers are cut at a bevel to set it
properly. If you are missing the spacers that go underneath you will not get
them
to tighten up.
This page from the Roadster Factory TR6 parts catalog shows it pretty well.
