Ordered a desk, the runners for the drawers are the wrong length.

So I ordered the "Olon Modular L-Shaped Steel Computer Desk with Built-In Electrical Outlet" through Wayfair, and I assemble most of the desk without any issues, until I get to installing the drawers. They're simple fabric drawers, no wheels, and just meant to slid on these 90-degree runners screwed into the desk's legs.

As the title suggests, the screwholes for the runners are juuuust too far apart to line up for the holes in the desk's legs. It's all metal, so I can't easily make my own holes.

Anyone have any advice here? This desk is *so close* to being complete. Thanks in advance!

EDIT:

Measurements: screwholes in the runners are 45cm apart; screwholes in the desk are about 43cm apart. I managed to "attach" one runner by engling the screws in at both sides, but this can't support the drawer/let it slide in and out.
