Hey guys, I've just upgraded to the double bungee attachment to stop the AMA's slapping about (idea came from here-
http://yakass.net/articles/87-equipment ... a-security).
I thought I'd do the right thing & got the Hobie tool to remove the single bungee's without totally destroying them. Well basically it was a total waste of $$. It cost $9 or $10 here in Australia & caused damage & didn't even budge them. The ever useful needle nose pliers I used however caused almost no damage & worked a treat, I should have done that in the first place but live & learn.
I hope this saves someone else a few $$
