Default Lower Radiator Hose Trouble

What up Jaggys! Hope everyone had a great weekend. I had some trouble with my 03 x type. The lower radiator hose came loose on the freeway. When I checked it out I noticed that the pin that holds it in placed came loose, so I put the hose back on set the pin in place checked to see if I could put it loose with my hand but was well on there so thought problem fixed. A few days later at a stop light same thing happend again. This time when I put the hose back on I could see stat the pin would start to slip out when I pulled on the hose with my hand to make sure the hose was on there. I wanted so know if there is a better way to secure that hose myself with a clamp or is there a better way to do it any feed back would be great. thanks your friend Erndiego.

I would either get a hose clamp, or I would grab a new lower radiator hose from rockauto.com. Hopefully one of the two will allow a snug fit back onto the underside of the radiator.
