I don't think they do mate, i know some people have changed the angle of their box with cable ties. I'm going to do the same, it wont melt it.

I wouldnt recomend it as they can slip off, when you have the rubbers on you can actually kind of block the cable ties in. With no rubber they could rattle out i guess.
Why can you not use rubbers?

Why can you not use rubbers?
If it does slip off it will catch on my bumper. And theres plenty of big daddy cable ties on.

Can't use the rubbers as the cock (aka previous owner) chopped the brackets off for the rubbers.
