The tube are interchangable from the non adjustable to the adjustable  
all you need to do is shorten the tube and the solder it in place.  
Then to assure that is is sealed put a little silicone around the  
joint prior to painting.  The tubes also can usually be straightened  
by putting the box in a vice and with an assistant heating the tube  
where the bend is and then bending back to straight.
