You can tell this by the way they close up with use. You occasionally have to spread them again, so they will slide all the way down the tapered battery posts again. I agree completely about the aftermarket aluminum clamps, however. I never saw one fail as quickly as yours but I also never saw one last as much as a year. All mine are still the originals, and I've never found any replacements that had nearly the same quality. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
