    My idea would be to buy a spare toilet bowl as the second you touch a ceramic toilet with an angle grinder you'll be needing one.

    Don't agree with that. The cistern lid in one of the bathrooms in my house had to be ground down to make it fit under a window sill. No breaking or cracking there. You never cut a ceramic/porcelain tile with a wet saw?

    Id cut from the flat unglazed back of it myself, it will probably chip the glaze anyway but shouldnt be seen from the front.
    I reckon if you start on a rounded, glazed bit you are asking for trouble!
