Any great ideas on how to pull the outlet forward without pulling the panel off? I’m thinking I might be able to cut the board enough to get the outlet tabs out but still hide the hole behind the plate.

I think they make box extenders that might help this situation.

The funny thing is… I have them, and planned on installing them, just after the board went in. Just didn’t plan on sealing the outlet into the box.
