Automatic Tonearm Lifter Help


My wife forced me to get rid of my old semi-automatic TT (an older Techniques - I'm still pissed at her over this onešŸ¤¬). I recently replaced it with anĀ  AT-LP1240-USBXP manual TT. I'm spoiled with the automatic tonearm return and would like to find some aftermarket product that will perform this function. However, there is absolutely NO space between the platter and the tonearm base. All of the products I've seen require at least 14 mm, which I don't have. Is there ANY lifter out there that might work?
