701 four position Flaperon positioning

I am installing the four position flaperon kit from Zenith on my 701. The mounting instructions call for it to be in the middle of the access hole under the seat this puts the position of the flapper leaver under the right leg has anyone else ran into this problem. Can it be moved slightly to the left to make it more in the middle of your legs?

I have mine mounted in the center of the hole under the seat and looked this morning while I was flying. The handle is centered between my legs.

Thanks Jim for responding I ended up moving my leaver 20mm to the left which brought it about in the middle of my legs. Zenith said this would be fine as there is a fair amount of room through that access hole.
