    Trying not to repost a common id I searched 7 pages of ID's to no avail so maybe someone can help. I've seen 2 or 3 of these little redish, transparent Y shaped things...

    Since no one seemed to get enough of an id with my first picture I thought I'd post another one, there seems to be one or two more and I have discovered they are relatively hard to remove from the LR...anymore ideas?

    I got excited when I saw this thread and the pics, because we have those as well. We have three of them, one is a full "Y" like yours in the pic, two others are within 3/4" of it but aren't big enough to be Y shaped things.

    And DRC, ours don't have holes at the end I don't think...but there are indentions on each end, like a hole. Maybe a hole? It's hard to tell.

    Anyone have an ID on these since they seem to be so popular?
