May I recommend you don't use them to hold the chip box on your truck. I did and they were great up to 89mph. But 90mph proved a bit too much for them and I now I no longer have a chip box but someone on the M50 does :biggrin:

 

Similar story here with a Mantec snorkel on my Defender - I didn't have the heart to drill the windscreen frame to fit so attached with thick cable ties to roofrack and windscreen clamp. Genuinely looked fine (it wasn't obviously bodged), stayed in place for 4000 miles at every speed possible in a Land Rover. However, one day it departed with a bang on the M6. I guess that will teach me for fitting such a tart's accessory!

They're part of that great family of modern marvels, a rawhide thong for the twenty first century. Sublimely simple, eminently effective and so cheap they might as well grow on trees. The Biro pen, plastic razor, panty liner, toothbrush, lighter, rubber band, PET bottle, bog roll, AA battery, Chapstick, condom, bandaid, plastic bag,...should be a memorial to them and their inventors.

 

+ Sticky Notes, don`t forget them! :thumbup1:
