Any great ideas on how to pull the outlet forward without pulling the panel off? I’m thinking I might be able to cut the board enough to get the outlet tabs out but still hide the hole behind the plate.

They make plastic spacers just for this purpose. You can probably find them at your local big box hardware store.
