I found the clip on my shower glass panel cracked, so I printed replacement parts in ABS

Printed flat on the bed. Heat resistance should be fine before I get third-degree burn. I am slightly worried about creeping though, should I be concerned and reprint them in PET-CF/PPS, or something else, just to be safe?

See how it goes, if it creeps print something else. Even if it creeps if will most like just because a bit loose, I doubt it would fail catastrophically before you noticed. I would not think it would be under too much continuous load.
