Are the two small alignment posts used to install and hold the bulb in the socket offset or in the same position on the opposite sides of one another?

They are not offset. They are exactly opposite of each other. I bought these for my boat which has the SeaDog type round stainless and glass overhead lights.

Yes, they are in reverse of each other but the polarity remains the same. Also the polarity is clearly marked. I would also recommend a swaging tool that mounts in a vise and also sold by Amazon. The tool provides the proper amount of squeezing.

The GU10 base has two posts. It only fits in a GU10 socket. It is not a threaded screw-in bulb.

I asked my husband, who installed ours, he said they will not mount upside down. The fixture is held in by little screws and gravity. He feels the would fall off

There is one metal contact on each side of the bulb base. You just press the bulb base straight into the specialy designed socket, no twisting or turning, the socket securely holds the bulb in place while making a connection with the two metal contacts.

No it is the same.....just turn one one of them upside down and they will match up when plugged together

Thank you for contacting us. The left and right will be the same number. You may need to spin the support to align the sockets for installation. --Lift Supports Depot

You got it almost right only backwards. These are to use EU bulbs in the US sockets.

Yes. I have two mounted in the same exact type of fixtures and they work excellent. In fact, in my opinion, they work better upside down than in a conventional lamp due to the design of the bulb. The lower part has no light output so there are "dark" areas that you can clearly see through a lamp shade.

I have mine installed on the patio fans which is also upside down. As long as the bulbs do not exceed the wattage rating listed on the lamp you should be ok. Also I ordered the 60W bulbs, but recieved 45W, just something to watch for.

The two I got at different times are both oriented as "both ends oriented the same way." The images are inconsistent. The 3/4 view image that's featured in the listing shows them as flipped, while the top view image displaying as I'm replying right now show them oriented the same way. Judging from other answers it appears there is no guarantee what you'll get.

The are fixed. But their angles give a good spread and make for a nice collective "flood" light with the right bulbs. I even tried taking it apart, and I guess I could have gone further, but I only got as far as taking off a plate that covers the back. It reveals the wires to each socket and the fact that each white pod is held securely to the black base with metal nuts and other parts. It is a simple but good product.

If you look on each one it will have a R (right) or L (left). Just install them on the correct side.

On my lamp, there are two brackets mounted to the base of the bulb socket. They rise up on either side and around the bulb and come together above the bulb, form a little platform to which the shade is attached by a finial which screws into the platform.

Yes. I currently have mine installed upside down in an outside porch light fixture.

No same side to side front and middle....one with nut on a wire goes in the rear on each side. There pretty easy if you get under and align the brackets to the holes. They all worked fine for me. That last one on a wire was a little tricky otherwise pretty quick and easy. Good luck
