    Anyone have the torque specs for Baja Designs Squadrons?
    Bezel and brackets to light?
    One thing said 7 ft/lbs another said 25 ft/lbs.
    Figured maybe the bezel is 7 and the brackets are 25.
    I'm the king of over torque and stripping. I'm not talking about my clothes.

    was it 7ft/lbs and 25 inch/lb. I can tell you the faceplate doesn't need much at all. use some anti-seize which they don't seem to use on the faceplate but use it on the brackets too. I went to remove mine and suckers are frozen and wont come out.

    Good info. I just did 7 ft/lbs bezel. 30 ft/lbs to the brackets. Skipped the anti-seize because I didn't have any. Just gonna throw them on and hope to never remove them. Lol. Thanks for the answer. They were from the uService manuals.

    nice yah that was my plan but i updated all m y s2's to the new lens pattern and couldn't get one of the faceplates off. Then picked up a new camper setup and needed to orientate them differently and cant. Granted they were on there for a few years so you have time but something id consider rather than F#@$@ing them up trying to get them off.
