Hey

I have some kicking around, but if you go to ford they can find them quite easily, there is 2 variants, you want the 5mm + 5mm + 8mm + 8mm. The smaller one is for non injection cars.

I believe the Finis code (whats written on my re-sealable bag thingy from ford) is 6110209

Yes, when u screw them on they flatten out, and thats how they grab the pipes. I expect, like me, u used a bit of brute force and ignorance thinking "they must unclip"
