Yes they're great. The meggy and trophy have them on.
I smear a bit of grease inside before pushing on.

Why not just buy new bolts ? Mine still look new three years on.

Yeah I have black plastic covers on mine. Mechanic I work with used to be at Renault and said oh I’ve got covers for the bolts and just popped them on lol.

Might have to press go on a set then, might have to get a new set of lockers as I’m not sure these will fit over the current ones.

Haha, maybe! I've been trying to get it really dirty but as I don't use it much it's taking a while.

I bought some for mine, put one on and I couldn't get the bloody thing off and ended up scratching it to f**k, so I never put the others on. Maybe a bit of grease is needed as mentioned above.

They are easy to remove, long nose pliers.

The ones I bought weren't. They were as tight as a nuns chuff.
