They have an internal light blocker to limit the beam to not shine in oncoming driver's eyes -- this can be removed easily. It is easy to strip the threads in the outer casing, though. I did this on one, but they come in a set of two for $49 so life is still good. They were available in my little podunk town at Chief Auto Parts and Kragen Auto Parts. They were on the shelf, no special order. Again, $49. I bought a $10 chrome replacement cover (the original is shiny black). It looked like crap with the chrome. If anyone disagrees I'll send you the chrome pieces so you can save the $10. The complete units weigh 252 grams each. That's just under 9 ounces. I plan to Adel clamp them to the gear leg or bolt it to a small (2 x 3 inch ) plate which is in turn Adel clamped to the gear leg. Expect a flight report sometime next millenium. - Rob Wolf Lompoc, CA
