yardmaster Carpal Tunnel Registered: 09/05/02 Posts: 17381 Loc: http://tinyurl.com/PAOpenCarry	Originally Posted By: yardmaster The mounting strap for the fixture got bent a little bit...don't ask blush... so the screws that hold the fixture don't go in straight so they don't hold the fixture. Asked Depot to send me another one.. whistle The mfg of the fixture called and left a msg. The mounting strap is not available for sending out. I have to take the entire fixture back to the store for exchange or ask the store to open a box of the shelf and give me a strap out of one of those. Would they do that without taking the whole light back..maybe just having the receipt? _________________________ If you were a dinosaur, the only thing you would do is suffer from reptile dysfunction.

They also have a back stock as they do not use them for displays. Then they sell the displays without strap as no one knows where it is. Habitat restore sells lights for $1 with the strap on them. _________________________ The world is not moved only by the mighty shoves of the heroes, but also by the aggregate of the tiny pushes of each honest worker. -Helen Keller
