andy120t:
For future reference - be careful opening up the gaps as those things are brittle. I've seen them snap off before which can be a bit of a pain...

Dave M:
And very expensive!

matthewmosse:
Better not to smash them cirtainly. I'd wonder if they didn't have a flaw in them if they snapped easily, perhaps from taking a knock in the past? I've taken appart some pretty ropey examples that have needed some perswasion and never seen one break.

Bryanj:
Top ones break if you dont fit the shaped washer in the gap
