resting on a tree wont break them!

They did not break with 18 stone jumping up and down on them. We also dropped a kerbstone on them from 5 feet high during our tests.

We could not break them!!

However, i suspect that when they are screwed to a wing, they become slightly stiffer, and therefore more likely to break..... like the (narrower)one on my Disco did....

You are quite correct.they are stiffer when added to the wing.

Not in hdpe plastic though..

Have you bought from us?

if you tell us the thickness then we can adapt it to fit.

but it will not fit with a smooth finish against 5 bar checquer plate.
