One thing you might want to consider - which I did - is get rid of all
those stupid little phillips head sheet metal screws and install
stainless sheet metal screws with a bolt head that is slotted. Life
becomes very simple when working on the lights when all you need to do
is pull out a nut-spinner (screwdriver with a permanent socket) of the
right size and have at it. The screws are bad to rust and they give you
fits with a phillips screwdriver. It's just a little thing that makes
life easier.

I didn't install them, so no sure if anything was cut or otherwise done that makes it a pain to go backwards.  In a normal install is anything cut or thrown away that that I will need?   Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks, Dave
