hot end mounting

hi, i have this hot end

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HotEnd-Fully-Assembled-and-Wired-FREE-Hobbed-Bolt-RepRap-3D-Printer-Hot-End-/280945250863?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&var=&hash=item4169a4522f

and a gregs extruder reloaded, i am just wondering the best way to mount it?

if I push the hot end into the extruder it goes in to far to use the mount holes on the side, that go through the grooves in the hot end.

so shall i push the hot end fully into the extruder and just use the 2 m3 rods to attach from the bottom, or should I not push the hot end fully in, so i can use the mount holes on the side as well? but there will be a gap of about 8mm between the top of the hot end and the bottom of the extruder?

thanks
