The rubber in the mountings will just about deflect enough to get the 2nd bolt in, but when you see this, you too will lose all faith in such a mis-fit. The strain will cause premature failure of the rubber as you'd guess.

I'd like to see how the shock is mounted at the top on a 924/944 and a 951 side by side.

Here's Stuart's top and bottom bolts:
