Default Seat bracket

So I bought a badlander seat for my bike but the rear bracket in the back is just a little short. Not by much. I can wiggle it in but don't what too. Anyone know where I can buy a longer bracket or a extension. It's only a 1/4 off but rather get a longer rear bracket then rig it to work
