Justin you would cut your hand if you tried to polish my cossie - its like shark skin! Probably as rough as some of your ex's! LOL
Anyway - you not the owner of a bufty brand spanker white thing these days

One side has 2 clips on it dont know about the other - its amazing how much a deer can nick off your car as you run over it!

Rhys,
If you leave the car outside (or live in deepest, darkest cold Wales ), the frost attacks them and makes them go brittle, this is when they break.

Are you fitting these clips in the right place as theres only
3 small,1 med,4 large if not fitted in the right place in the right order they are more likely to snap
