Could you recommend a good pair? I got a 'set' from somewhere, and they do work - but I've already ruined the two snap rings on the WCP DS's we have and need to replace them before they see competition. Getting the tips into the holes after the snap ring was mounted, even with what we thought was perfect alignment, is what caused the rings to warp.
