yep i have a pack of cable ties in the boot and they could hold the Blackpool tower together, i only really used them to hold the wheel trims on but i have alloys now, i had to use it to hold my rear light cluster on and tied it on on the inside when my son had a rather small incident in my octavia in May (maybe not that small :cry: ) Image
