iPod touch 4g replacement screen seems a bit too thick

I ordered and received a replacement screen for an iPod touch 4g from iFixit. During the final phase of assembly with the new screen, it seems the replacement screen from iFixit is just a shade too thick, and will not seat properly on the iPod. Has anybody else experienced this? During the final phase of re-assembly, pressing on either end of the display to seat it would result in the other end lifting off the iPod. I did not attempt to force the screen into place as I did not want to risk damaging the new screen. It almost seems as though the light diffuser (or whatever the rubbery pad is stuck to the rear of the display glass) is too large, and I'm curious if peeling this off and using the original in its place might be considered a workable solution. Has anybody else experienced this, if were you able to work past it, and if so what did you have to do?
Thanks for any suggestions.
