Using them as landings for a third hand tool instead of positioning the tool on the pad nuts. If you have used one of these tools, you know that you first anchor the far end and then pull toward you to spread the spring to anchor it on the inside pad. The pulling force is a bit too much for the thin guides, it seems. I made a mental note to not use the guides this way again.
