And for what it's worth the water movement effect was wicked. If you're OK with replacing the upgrade kit on a regular basis (it's not like they are super expensive) you may have the last laugh. I tried all manners of glues, epoxies, acrylic weldon, titanium shims inside the shaft, etc. - to repair the busted holder arm but nothing I did lasted longer than a couple weeks. I gave up on the idea after a while but maybe you can have better luck than I did.

Yeah, the lower part of the arm is pretty flimsy all right. I can see it breaking easily. I'll try them out and when they break I won't replace them.
