Yours should be the thick ones, so they will be fairly stiff, just because of 
the thickness, but you should be able to twist or crush them without having 
them crack. Nothing you can do to them by hand should damage them.

I have spares here, as well as the correct coolers with the foam covering that 
they NEED before you reinstall. Your old foam is either crumbling now or 
completely gone.

Did your three mounting bolts have the proper spacer washers on them?
