Looking for some input on a skid plate for MX. The track here in AK has some nice size rocks on it and I definitely need more than just a glide plate. I have been running an EE, but since reading about frame flex I am looking at going plastic. I have tried TMD and I hated the design and how hard it was to mount, and the other day I tried hyde, which moves all around and does not stay in place on the frame. I have thought about Acerbis but I have heard that it also doesn't stay in place either. Any help on this issue would be great thanks.

And how does it stay in place? How many mounting points do they have? Shipping is a bitch to and from AK, and I will probably be sending my hyde back since I am no impressed at all.

The ones that I have stayed in place very well, they have 3 mounting points. The front mount on mine actually clamped to the frame and made the install easier.

The picture below is the skid plate I had on my TC 125
