How do you install this? I live in a dorm and I cannot take out the original socket plates in the walls. Will I have to?

I simply plugged it in. I didn't remove the socket plate & it worked great.

You should remove the existing socket cover so you have something to screw the outlets into... might be possible to remove the screw from the current outlet and screw this in, but is not designed to be used as such...

You just plug it into the existing outlet plate. It does, however, come with a long screw that you could use if you unscrewed the one on your current plate. On mine, I didn't bother to do that. One note, for some reason, they use only one metal 3 prong plug set and one plastic 'fake' set, so all 6 outlets go through one plug.

It is easy because this adapter can plugin to the original socket plates on the wall, you do not need to uninstall the original one. Amazon cannot let me upload picture here, other wise I can show you how I plug.This item should add another photo of the other side of this item.

Remove the existing cover plate. Yhe new outlet has a mounting screw that goes into the same hole that the screw from the original plate went into.

If it is as the one pictured, underneath is a hex head screw. Simply loosen it and pull fixture out from the wall. Hope this is of some help.Paul

Hi. I just went in and removed the bulb to make sure. First unscrew the cover over the bulb. Next you have to have strong fingers but push the bulb and turn it until you feel it loosen up. It does not completely unscrew out of the socket. When you feel it's loose turn the unit upside down and the bulb should fall out. Once this happens you will see how the bulb is held in the socket. Hope this helps.

i found them on line from dee zee. I will tell you that they are not real clear, but with a little common sense i got it figured out. start by laying all pieces out. this includes all nuts and bolts seperated in piles and all the big hardware. I used an air rachet but a regular socket and box end will do just fine.

I looked at mine and it appears that there is a nut holding the plate. Only 1 that I see. I guess take off the nut and remove the holder plate.

Pull off the plastic bulb cover and there are 2 screws. Very simple. FYI. It's very loud/ buzzing noise and there is a few second delay before turning on. Wish I had purchased the more expensive one... Great if you are putting it in a garage etcetera

Unscrew the mounting caps. Remove the board. Remove the threaded studs and washers. Tape over the mounts that remain in the wall. Paint. Then remove tape and remount board. If you completely remove the mounts, you will need to re-drill holes and re-attach the mounts, so I would not recommend doing that.

The short answer is that you just plug it in. The longer answer is that the plate has to be inserted into the socket. The fan just sits loose. Not very elegant. You might want to mount the fan. But you might also consider using a larger auxiliary standalone fan - depending on what you are doing with it. I have used it for a few different applications and found it to be less than 100% effective, but still much more effective than anything else I tried, and BY FAR the easiest. I highly recommend it.

You must install the wall plate since the electric cord to connect the dryer is connected to the mounting plate

You must remove old one and slide new one over socket, you may have to trim sockets down to size hence why they are so inexpensiveDane HarmonDCH Electric & Lighting

Mine were only on the bed, and I've read that they can/will crawl into sockets. Because this is liquid, I would first turn off the electricity, remove the outlet, then spray the non-electrical area around it before replacing outlet, and cover plate.

Just unscrew the plate and screw in the LED light. Easy and so nice down my hallway.

I'm lucky as I never had to change my bulbs yet, but I think you need to unscrew the screws and the glass plate comes off and then you can remove the lightbulbs. Hope that helps.

I put it in the upper socket and the lower socket is totally accessible, however the other way around it would be blocking the other outlet.

The ones I have are combo style allowing you to use either a flathead or Phillips screwdriver. I used a socket driver with a cordless screwdriver to install mine; 1/4" socket I believe. That way I could apply some pressure and the screws would self-tap into the wood w/o having to drill a pilot hole.

If you really want them you always could take your bed off and mount them to the back off it with the antennas on the inside of the bed. But one of my buddies welded little tabs with holes to the lip of the bed and ran them through there with the nuts from the mounts without using the actual plates.
