Andy, We almost said the exact same thing. But I am amazed though that your take on it is so much milder than mine! :)

I replaced the rubber boots because they were perished and managed to get the amber lens back in place however getting the chrome trim in under the rim of the rubber boot is proving to be nearly impossible. ==AM== Barry, it's really not that difficult. All you need is the proper tool, which can be as simple as a very small, flat-blade screwdriver that you use to "work" the rubber over the chrome retainer ring. It might slip (might? almost always does for me at least once!), so it can't hurt to just throw a bit of masking tape on the paint surrounding the lamp body to stop scratches. It's one of those frustrating little tasks that seems rather easy once you've done it successfully! --Andy Mace *Mrs Irrelevant: Oh, is it a jet? *Man: Well, no ...
