What am I missing. I don't see how the shades and globes stay up. I thought the globe would screw on holding u[ shade, but it's too big.

First the shades then the globes then there should be a black plastic "nut" that holds everything together then you put your bulbs in.

I can understand your problem, but it is fairly simple to install. The part that attaches to the sunvisor will expand or detract to fit over the sunvisor. fit it over the sunvisor where the color visors are closest to windshield. slide the part over the visor to where it is tight. and you are done. You can fold down the dark one for sunshine or the yellow one for nite driving. Hope this will help you. I couldn't read instructions either.

No. See the bottom decorative fitting? It's holding the glass shade in place.

Whenever I try to adjust the height, it doesn't stay in place. In fact, one time the shade came crashing on my head. Now I have it at the lowest height and I turned the shade up so that the bulb faces the ceiling. This way it puts out plenty of light. I also use a different light bulb than the one that came with it. The quality on this lamp is very poor. I don't recommend getting it unless you are handy (like my husband) and can fix things, like the faulty switch.

You must have the shade installed wrong somehow. The diffuser should not sit halfway into the shade and the bulbs should not show. Flip the shade over and try installing that way.

Hi Joan,I was very disappointed with the shade. the fabric is a very light canvas, not at all sturdy. It is about 4' long, only partially shades. I returned the item. Hope this can help.Susan

The glass shade or globe that fits into the holder is 2 1/8 inches across. The electrical socket for the bulb prevents an accurate measurement of the inside of the holder but it appears it is 2 1/4 inches. Three screws in the sides of the globe holder are tightened under the globe lip to hold it in the holder. If 2 1/4 is correct then it may not leave room for the three screws to be tightened. We are using 40 watt equivalent LED bulbs and the light is very bright.

It is simple...there is a hole in the top of the upper frame that goes right on top of the lamp and you screw a pretty thingie right on top to secure the shade. It is a very common way to attach a shade to a lamp. The lamp is completely lined with a silky fabric. For the cost, the shades are worth every penny!

You'll need to accordion fold them up. It works. We folded up several folds and put the clip in the middle of the shade. Then we pulled the sides down to meet in the center and clipped the two sides together. Think of an upside down fan. It looks pretty but hard to explain. Doing this little maneuver, let's some light in while maintaining privacy. Reduces the amount of up and down of the shade.

I did not set posts. I built an arched frame over a trampoline and used it as a shade cover in that manner. I will tell you that the corners do hang out further than the center of the shade cloth and there is some stretch to the material in and of itself.Whatever the measurement is , I would allow an extra six inches in the pole settings and buy at least two adjustable straps to mount it with. You might want to check out Harbor Frieght. Also, a slight pitch will help you get leaves, etc off the top of the shade in a much more easy manner than a flat top. Good luck.

I Dont know I am having that trouble also and can't get answers, that is the one problem With ordering from Amazon. My second shade would not stick so got the scotch brand double sided tape and when I tried to lower the shade the strings broke. The Shades are junk I think and now can't return because I had to use other tape.

The shade is attached so that you can mount with shade either pointing up or down. We have ours mounted pointing down. No problem.

I bought a rectangular shade with different measurements but i did go and buy turn buckles steel eyelets and steel caribeners at Home Depot. Utilizing these items allowed me to place the poles "close enough" and get the shade nice and taunt. Good luck!

There's a small cord housing unit that hangs at the bottom of the cord (2-3' from the top) and has to be screwed in to something to work properly (mounting hardware included). This caused a little problem for us because the shade hangs down about 8" away from the post the bracket is on so the cord is at an angle.

I am not too sure what this question is asking. This cord is made for the stars and it goes inside hanging down from the ceiling...how would you use it? What would prop up the shade itself? If it is hanging down from a hook with a bulb pointed down I see no reason why not.

Hi, This lamp is made from many pieces of glass and it's not made to slide up and down. You can reach the sockets with your hand, no need to take off the shade. Thanks

There are no mechanism but you manually push up and down. I wouldn't reccommend the shades if the shades are to be used constantly. They seem a bit flimsy.
