Aer Lingus Cabin baggage restrictions

Hi folks,
It's been a while since I flew with Aer Lingus shorthaul, and was wondering could someone enlighten me with regards to their cabin baggage restrictions?

Are they as strict as Ryanair now? i.e. do they check every bag and get you to fit it in the frame?

Reason am I asking is - myself and Mrs AGOW are flying to London tomorrow morning and I've just realised my faithful Samsonite has finally died (hinge is bust), the replacement that I have at home in my cupboard is approx 55cm x 40cm x 24cm whereas Aer Lingus website states that the max is 55cm x 40cm x 20cm.
Am I best to just check in the bag or do you suppose Aer Lingus would allow some wiggle room?
I know from Ryanair that there is no way I would get the bag on.
Thanks,
AGOW
