    Picked one of these up last night, and I have to say they look even better in person than in the photos, which tend to make you think it's smaller than what it is.

    I got the last one on the shelf at the local WW - makes you wonder if they had a run on these things from VX owners!

    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.

    Got my replacement light....now I know why it didn't work.....quality craftsmanship!! Those two nubs that you touch to turn it on weren't even drilled thru the plastic lens....somebody on the line apparently forgot to drill those two little holes for those nubs. My 1st plastic lens cover was completely smooth, no nubs, no holes.

    So.....if you buy one of these, press hard on the plastic packaging and make sure you can feel those 2 nubs before you buy it.

    I can't wait till I save another 3 fiddy. I'm soooooooo excited about doing a new mod.
    Are those lights in Automotive or housewares?
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
    "He's not in, may we take a message?"

    They were in the main light bulb area with all the CFLs etc..., not automotive.

    Unhappy A FYI on the sylvania light...



    I found out today, that the velcro/adhesive pads that come with these lights is garbage...

    Mine fell off on the ground when I had the back door open.

    It came unstuck from the backing/mounting plate, not the roof trim.

    Thought Y'all might want to take preventative measures & replace with some 3M double stick.

    Last time I tried something like that, they asked me to leave & never come back.
