Default Anybody used the crabtree sockets with clip on faceplates?

I am after some chrome, flat plate double sockets for the kitchen - maybe
these from screwfix...
http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/...62543&id=22279

Just wondering if the section screwed to the backbox can cope with the back
boxes not being flush with the wall? With a normal socket with screws
through the front, it doesnt really matter the backbox isnt flush - you just
get longer screws and the faceplate grips the surrounding plaster. But
without seeing these crabtree ones in the flesh it is hard to tell if the
fitting behind the faceplate must go right up to the backbox or not.

Anyone here used them?


cheers

Dave.
