Default Aftermarket, longer, muffler mounts?

I have a weird issue on my Corsa exhaust. I have a custom h-pipe that I had cut and welded so I could get them to line up front to back. On my stock exhaust, one muffler stuck out way further than the other, so I tried to remedy this with my new h-pipe. Well, it did fix the problem and the mufflers now line up front to back. However, while the driver's side has the tab deep seated in the mount, the passenger side is hanging by a thread. It is barely seated inside the mount.

I think the only solution is to

1) Somehow get a longer rubber mount
2) I have to lengthen both sides and seat the driver's side as far as it will go, hopefully giving the passenger side enough meat.

#2 would be annoying

I wish I noticed that BEFORE I had the pipe welded. Now it's becoming a Frankenpipe.
