Not bad! Read on for more detailed installation instructions.

Received my flashlight and found it to be quite well made. Read other reviews and wanted to add my 2 cents. The seal that comes with the headlight looks quite high quality. My fork went right into the factory fork but wouldn't snap so I used some tape. Then head to the store to buy a tube of clear RTV sealant for $2.99. Remove your old light, clean the surface where the gasket rests very well. Then, before removing the tape from the pad, lay it down and see where it lies. I had 2 small holes that I had to pop out of the gasket. Then, using a tube of RTV, apply a small bead to the entire area where the gasket will be. You don't need much, I had 1/4 beads all around. At this stage, prepare a rag. Remove the sticker from the gasket (make sure the gasket is facing the right direction) Squeeze the gasket to close the RTV sealant. Press firmly on all sides. Use a rag to wipe up any excess RTV that may have leaked out. Then plug in the light and secure the connector. Reinstall the lantern and secure with the factory screws. DO NOT OVERSPEED. Clean up the mess you made on the lens. Wait for the RTV to settle (read the time on the box). Once the RTV is set up, grab a spray bottle of soap and water. Turn on your truck, rev up the fan motor and make sure all the windows are closed. Go to your newly installed device and give it a good coat of soapy water. Watch it for a few minutes, look closely, if you see bubbles you have a leak. No bubbles, your gold! I've attached a photo, 2 with the lights on in the garage and 2 with the lights off. The brake light is pretty bright, not super bright, but it will do the job. 2 white charging lights are useless! They don't point to the bed. Not bad for the price. As for durability, we'll see.
