It was the investigative process Steve. I had determined the very first time that the 'O' rings were the problem but I didn't know why. I could see that they were flattening but I wanted to find out the reason. I experimented with various things including a different material and a marginally larger size, hence doing the job several times on my own car but I have not had to do it again since positioning the serrated clips properly. This is all that is necessary. Renewing all the plastic parts is a waste of time and money if the clips are ignored.

Thanks for your question Steve.

Simon
