Is there a better solution they are a prick to get on in tight places especially the bottom hose outlet of the radiator

they will probably smash a plastic rad outlet if your not carefull

how are they hard to put on . just point the bolt head to somewhere you have access ?

not much room down there on a v7 point the bolt where you can get to but the thread comes out the other side and has to go somwhere so not much options for it really which is why Im asking if there is something better to use and yup if tightened enough it will break the plastic outlet which I am aware of but ya gotta be dumb to fo that

Is the worm type of clip you tighten with a screwdriver alright to use will it hold the pressure

overkill a tad

these are fine in most applications
