Bought the battery, but how can I take 2-3 mm off a ridge that is maybe 2 mm thick itself?

My battery came in yesterday, I picked it up earlier today.

The latch on the terminal side fit and closed, but had to remove a tiny sliver from the other side so it would lock. Now it fits perfectly and locks.

It's charging as I post this. Only 4 hours and 15 minutes left to a full charge.
