 I've used O.C. White arms for years.
 My only complaint, is noise from the tensioning springs, but a coat of
 shrink tube helps, and replacing the steel springs with rubber tie-downs
 ( from your local truck stop ) makes them totally silent.

 They look cheap, but hold up real well.
 I've learned not to argue with success.   ;)
