What ones are you using?
I made some custom ones for my KW Clubsport's and just pushed them in, they haven't fallen out.

The hex key is just pushed in and I've had no problems in about 8000 miles.

They should be ok just pushed in, not sure how well they'll work due to the angle but at only 2mm they'll be pretty flexible.
