When you order a new one get three. One for the other side and a couple of spares. I have found they sit quite well without clamps, as they did in the factory, but if you feel it isn't a good enough fit you can clamp around them, but i wouldn't get carried away tighten it as it will stress and deform them.

They are ok but at $20 each they are twice the price than from JK which are the same as originals. Even Mick motors has the OE type for $7.19. Pays to shop around as there are very different prices and quality.  (been very happy with Mick Motors over a long time)
