Front Light Guard Tabs Breaking

Shocked Has anybody noticed this on theirs. I have 2 tabs that have broken on the O/S Xenon. They have'nt been touched or bashed and the last tab looks like its gonna break soon too. These tabs hook under the grill and hold the light guard in place, but mine wont for much longer I guess.

I am sure they are covered by 12 Month warranty, but can I just get the ONE Question

Yep, I got a tab broken on one.

No probs with mine AND they were second hand from chris200100 (not seen him in ages)

I wonder whether the fact that the clips (and grill holding them) were pretty much hidden behind the A-Bar helps Confused

No thats b***ocks - all I can think off is that mine were not stressed or stretched in any way when fitted

Mac its not beyound the wit of man to make an (in)visible mend on these Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
