I have a set of 105 8spd levers that have had those bits filed down flat - I presume for this reason. They fit on an alu cannondale frame I was going to build up that had a similar arrangement to your frame.

Can I just buy these off the shelf
You want the lever boss cover for light alloy frame. I think SJSC have them

I need a bit of shifter compatibility help. Vitus 979 frame with 90s Shimano 6-7 speed SIS shifters. The frame bosses are different to what I've had before. The chrome spacers that go between the frame boss and the shifter (which do the indexing) usually butt up against the downtube because they are curved on the back. Here it seems they aren't compatible and I need a flat one. Can I just buy these off the shelf and it'll work or do I need to get a whole new shifter set?
Pics might help explain but aren't in the correct order.
