    Yes, thats the rear hose clamp's job, tighten the clamp, the beam goes up, loosen it, it goes down. When I first put them in, they were pointed right at the ground. The L bracket isnt quite long enough, so the adjustment clamp tries to slip off, thats the reason for the zip tie. I am going to replace the zip tie with a more permanent solution, just havent thought of one yet. The rear clamp also helps sturdy the light up a little bit.

    I hadn't seen that yet. If/when my mod fails, I'll probably get those.

    I saw that... I'm thinking about it, but it may be a little rich for my blood. I've got about $750 to spend.

    More than your $750, but you only need 1/2 down which give you time to save the rest.
