..I'm part way through replacing a drive shaft on my 172 FF.
The clip that holds the boot on at the gearbox end has come off the replacement drive shaft.
The clip looks like this:-

It's proving to be a real pig to put back on as I don't have the proper pliers.
Can I use normal metal cable ties like these ones:-

or maybe an adjustable one like this:-

Any advice greatly appreciated
