How is stone guard kept on light, and how well made is the is the mounting system.Is light cheaply made ?

The light part has groves that you push the guard into. Then turn to stay in place. Can't have the bare light without the guard because that's what holds the glass in place. Not cheaply made, I had the same concern, but I like it and haven't had a problem with it.

Stone guard rotates approx an inch clockwise to close and counter to open. It has to be used because it holds the light/lense in housing. Very durable in my experience.

The guard is made of plastic, but stays in place and seems to be very strong. In fact, months after installation & use, one bulb started flickering and giving me trouble, I called KC and after they tried to help me troubleshoot it over the phone, they just sent me a new light with no questions asked. They have a long & reliable warranty. I would say that they are well made and they honor their warranty wonderfully.

The stone guard is simply a plastic housing around the light. I believe it is part of the light and cannot fall off. I have two mounted on my n-fab front bumper and have had no problems. I actually wired them straight to the factory fog light wires so that they work with my factory switch in the cab. That being said, the mounts are cheaply made they're just plastic. They do give you a rubber grommet to put between the bumper and the light. These lights are ideal for light duty fog lights but would not be suited that well for a rugged off road application.

Almost a year on my truck. Still doing fine. My lights are mounted in my bumper.

I mounted mine on me eves around my house and had no problems. I use them as security lights. Hope this helps you.

Nothing needs to be drilled but it's rather difficult to keep the light from tipping down as you ride. I had to use several extra washers to make the clamp good and tight. No problem now.

I have it mounted under all my semi auto hand guns and pictanny rail assault rifles they are recoil resistant thus far no problems. Very bride at 150 lumens!!

I bought 4 of these lights, mounted one pair under the light bar, and one pair over so I needed to flip the guards on one pair to keep the logo right-side-up. As Mark replied, yes, the stone guards can be removed by applying a fair amount of rotational force however I had no sense they might break under the required torque it took to turn them.

Yes. There is no guard on the light but the lumens provided would be very adequate.

It stays the body turns and the way it is set up is the way your stanchion mount is staing but it is really nice light it does a great difference :)

I mounted mine using 30mm scope mounts, because the single mount NEBO gives your isnt stable. As for a manual...This light system is very easy to mount, and use. I have one on my Custom AR, Mossberg 590, Maddi Ak, and going to mount one on my GSG-522 Tactical. Very good light for the price. I see people spending $100's for these lights that do the same as NEBO Protec 4-way's do. You can ask me questions at wilkinsjl77@yahoo.com

Just took one apart to be sure of how it is wired...There are black and white wires coming off the back of the porcelain lamp holder...These leads are permanently affixed to the lamp holder and will use wire nuts for connections...There are no screw connections for the wires on the lamp holder...Also, there is a very small "allen head" set screw that secures the guard to the housing...Back it out so the guard will screw on/off easily...I found some red glass globes for my lights...They do tighten down ok with a little care...The guard keeps them in place...Respy, Capn Carl...

The lights are not heavy. They are reasonably light. Double stick tape should hold them. It's worth a try. The screws worked well for me and I am very pleased with the light they provide.

I've used one in a 1" mount by wrapping the body of the light in a piece of bicycle innertube and locking it down. That works fine, and also cushions the light from recoil.

I used the light on my 12 mile daily commute to and from work. Part of that commute takes me over some rough terrain. I've had my Cygolite for two weeks mounted to the front forks. Lights had stayed in place. As a matter of fact, yesterday I broke a screw which holds my rear rack to frame after running over some a man hole cover which had been dislodged out of place.

Thanks for the enquiry. there are a few mounts on the market and they are all good, the technology behind them is virtually the same and there's not much that can go wrong with them. we sell some on our site but sold out at present. But you can pre order if you wish. We have some pictures of our light mounted on a wrangler found on our site www.bisonpro.com under the 50" LED bar. Hope that helps, let me know. Thanks

I crashed with mine and the light is still functional. The body is aluminum and has some gouges and scores from encounters with concrete and other parts of the bike. The mount is just plastic; mine broke when I crashed. Also, the mount doesn't grip tightly to metal or paint. Wrap some tape around the point where you plan to mount it and that will keep it from shifting around.

Light is water proof , made from good quality and has performed perfectly on my Kawasaki Mule Side By Side . Light is very bright and mounting bracket is very strong . Mounting light and installation was a breeze . I am very happy with this product .

Definitely bright enough, I may be concerned about the mount moving around though. It will not fall off but bumps may cause it to shift around.

To be honest i never tried putting on a different light. But i believe you could attach a shoe mount on it. Sorry if i didn't completely answer your question. i could send some pics, if that will help?
