Is anyone else having issues getting them to stay in the radiators or having a hard time getting them to fit?

I have lost 3 louvers in the last season and as I put another set on there has to be a better way to secure these!

Any Rm owners have any advice, I know they just click in but it seems as though I need to bend my tabs out to get them to fit and then bend the rad tabs back in to get the louver snug - i'd prefer to ease back on the bending and gain confidence that these things aren't going anywhere.

Thanks.

I've had zero issues with mine. Heck I have to vend shit out of the rad louvers to get them to fit into the rad....

Yah Ive tried bending my louvers but its just too far, any further and the plastic will just snap! Guess I need to bend the tabs on my rads a touch.

Same, I've bent mine so far to the point I wouldn't have been surprised if it did snap, but it seems to hold up like concrete.
