[OM] Need help with 2X converter

OK, so I probably missed this...
But, my "Vivitar Automatic Tele Converter 2X-21"
worked fine on the OM 10. When I try to use it on the OM-1 MD or the OM-2n it 
seems to block the mirrors. Is there something I'm missing?
Yes I can knock the glass out and use it as an extension tube (and probably 
will), but why is it doing this? And how do I avoid making the same mistake 
with a replacement? Please don't just "OM" me... the factory tubes from Olympus 
for the PEN-F series were plainly marked Vivitar. Still have the catalog sheets 
from the original importer, Ponder & Best to show that.  
  (Anyone need a copy?)
Thanks for your help, folks. 
Rick (Still lurking on the Digest in VA)
