Before you glue anything, just slip a Blank Insert over the ridge on the bottom of the KB. Perfect fit! Almost like they were designed for this very purpose! This step is nothing more than applying Super Glue to the two surfaces of the blank inserts that will come into contact with the ridge on the KB, then placing the insert on said ridge, and leaving the thing alone for five minutes. Be sure to push the inserts all the way down until the tiny little tabs come in contact with the ridge, so that they'll both be the same height. Otherwise your KB will rock in a really irritating manner while you type. I like to squirt a little pile of the gel on a bit of paper, then use a paperclip or toothpick to apply the glue. If you like to just squirt the glue right on the insert, I'm not here to judge. As for positioning, I put mine near the ends of the ridge for maximum stability. This positioning isn't really critical either, just make sure that they're not too far out so that the USB ports aren't obstructed in any way.
