Need help getting a point to point GRE tunnel set up for Internet traffic

I am attempting to get a point to point GRE tunnel set up for backup internet access. Here is some backgorund information on what I am trying to do (if it is even possible):

We have a server co-location what will let us use their internet POP for a backup internet solution from our Corp HQ via fiber. Both locations are physically seperated. What I want to do is create a point to point tunnel that will start at the co-location and terminate on an interface on a UTM firewall device at HQ. So far I have not had much luck getting this to work. Here are the tunnel and route configurations from both sides:

CORP HQ:

interface Tunnel1

description Tunnel to Tierpoint for Internet

ip address 10.0.0.5 255.255.255.252

keepalive 5 4

tunnel source 10.92.0.2 <-- IP address of the UTM firewall

tunnel destination 66.45.*.* <-- IP of the outside address at the co-location

interface Loopback1

ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.255

interface Vlan92

description Backup Internet

ip address 10.92.0.1 255.255.255.248

ip route 66.45.*.* 255.255.255.255 172.16.6.242 <-- Next hop address at the co-location

CO-LOCATION:

interface Tunnel1

description Tunnel to Corp for Internet

ip address 10.0.0.6 255.255.255.252

keepalive 5 4

tunnel source 66.45.*.* <-- Outside internet address

tunnel destination 10.92.0.2 <-- Ip on the UTM firewall

interface Loopback1

ip address 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.255

interface Vlan2

ip address 66.45.*.* 255.255.255.224 <-- Outside internet IP interface

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 66.45.170.193 <-- Next hop IP for the default route

ip route 10.92.0.0 255.255.255.248 172.16.6.241 <-- Next hop IP at HQ

if there is a way to get this to work, I would really appreciate any help. If there is a better way than this, I am all ears!

Thanks!

You have posted the same question in the LAN Switching and Routing forum where I have posted a response. I suggest that any further discussion of this be consolidated in the LAN forum.
