Uh oh, Corsair HX650 doesn't fit my Phantom 410 chassis

Well, I just received the parts for the new machine a few hours ago. Now I just started with assembling it and I came across a nasty and perplexing surprise.

My Corsair HX650W doesn't want to get in there. The case comes with little rubber pads that are glued to the "floor" of the case, I'm guessing you're supposed to put the PSU on top of those. The problem is that they kind of act as little standoffs for the PSU, so I'm lacking that tiny 3mm of space to stick it in there. I tried removing one of them but there's so much glue under that... it would make for one messy installation.

Anyone ever ran into this ? What can I do to remove the glue if I decide to go that route ?
