Look at this guide on taking apart a 450D. I assume the person who did my filter swap (remove IR block, fit clear glass) had to go through a similar procedure. One possible candidate is between the module which holds the sensor assembly and the rest of the internals. While I'm there I also want to have a go cleaning between the filter and sensor as there is one annoying piece of dust in there.

Would a very crude solution work? I.e. take a piece of thin paper, aluminum foil, teflon tape or something similar, put it between body and lens mount on one side as you mount the lens. I never tried anything like this, but since you need so little correction, putting the shim between lens and body could be the least amount of work and would allow you to tinker around with thickness. You might have to seal for light leaks tough.
