Here's a question for a friend...

Do the cups for the headligt mounts look right here? They seem to big for the mounting post on the body. What did you guys do to mount your lights?

heres a pick from the web
it clearly shows them the way you have them
so I guess mine are upside down but they work for what I need
looking at it again I can see why you would need the flange area for more support if mounted to a flat surface
so far I have had no problems with them being mounted upside down
on the light pillar of the body
