I use a 10c coin - I agree the quality of the oem clips is not great as they do break when outside temps get well below freezing. However the op needs to stop being a bit tight [bighmmm] and just buy a few and keep a few as spares - as mentioned can be had for about $1 each.
Will the plastic in a 3D printer we any more tolerant to cold temps than the plastic in the OEM clips.
I keep a 20 cent coin under my towball cover, I forget and loose it from time to time.
Or I use a key, I always padlock the trailer hitch onto the car so there is always a key.
Had a boat trailer jump once, won't be doing that again.
Depends as there so many different filaments out and about nowQuote:

I solved the issue - I don’t refit the cover [emoji41]
