Well just fitted my cheapie Maf that I got off ebay and after what people were saying on here, I was a bit worried about the fiat pipe clips....

What's the problem?, I've never used such an easy set of clips. Ok, they're not jubilee clip simple, but 2 secs off 2 secs on. I'm actually quite impressed the fiat came up with a simple, cheap solution

Yep there easy. Just the water ones which carnt be re-used are a little tougher, they take 10 seconds to remove.

I dunno mike, just pop them off with a flat blade screwdriver and pinch them back on with pilers

I don`t think those are the clips that most people have bother with. It`s the ones that carlt mentioned above which have to be burst apart to open as they`re secured with folded down tabs and another set of tabs are folded down on top of these too crazy !

You`ll know what I mean when you get to one wink .
