Seymour Duncan SJ5 Quarter Pounder pole spacing

Hi all,

Does anyone have photos of what Seymour Duncan SJ5 Quarter Pounders will look like on a 5 string jazz bass with a string spacing of 67mm?

My bass has the spacing to fit the 67' neck pickup but since I live in Australia, there are only quarter pounder pickups available without having to sell a kidney to buy.
I've read threads that say that the pole spacing does not have to be directly under the string, but I am concerned about it aesthetically because I know I would be annoyed by the look if it's really offset.
