Turbo Vado 5: too unstable on the kickstand

My como kickstand took a dump. Hauling groceries, guess it couldn't take the heat. The info on this thread helped me find one and order through amazon. Here is a pick of the original and broke piece. If Spec is going to charge top notch prices, they need to use top notch pieces. Hollow plastic is not up to the task. My bike has little over 2000 miles.

There are 2 holes in the frame to attach the kickstand. I don't see what would be adjustable.

Edit: I just read another thread. Looks like the kickstand needs a trim.

Edit2: I found a screw that could be loosened to adjust the length. Thanks again, Stefan!
Looks like a larger foot has been added to your kickstand.
Here's what the OEM kickstand looks like on my wife's Specialized Turbo Vado SL 4.0 .
