Very common. Sometimes these new cells are actually a bit larger in
diameter, or sometimes just the wiring can make it tough.
If you followed Franks method, I think he presented some potential
solutions in his directions? This is from my memory, so I might be
wrong. On one occasion I ended up needing to file away some of original
battery casing in order let it slide reasonably easily... This was
tricky as the casing is very thin in certain areas.
