You can buy plastic/rubber caps that go over the end of the clamp too.

Cat Man- I enjoy sizing the Stainless clamps I use. When I do a final fit & it is tightened, there is no room for a tab cover.. I might be a lil OC about things like this.. (Help...)

 

Sizing? You mean you don't daisy-chain several too-small clamps together to do the job?

 

3 pages, 23 posts! We must be really bored.

 

I'm more bored than you I think.

 

No. I think we are having a good discussion on a simple thing.
How many people chime in and don't their A$$ from their elbow ?
Education is a wonderful thing.

 

Whopper- Nope, haven't done that since I was a kid & was in a pinch, till I could get the correct size clamp.. But it worked, looked like crap tho..

 

I worked with a guy that came from South America (yes he was a legal US citizen). He would say "What would you do in the jungle ?" Gots to do, what you gots to do.
When you have to clamp a 5" or 6" air to air intercooler pipe find something and make it work.

 

I've had to do that after a charge air hose come loose on the '07 Pete with a C-15 550 that I drive....John

 

Worked on many of them.
Thanks.
P.S. Was that a software update from a 475 that you had to pay for from the dealer ?
Also I'm glad you stated C15 other than the 3406E.
