Screws hold them in- 2 of them I believe. Then the lenses screw into the housing.

There are 2 holes in the housing, that is what holds it onto the body, THEN there are 2 holes thru the lenses and that holds the lense on. I wish I had a pic for you, but I don't. Hope that makes sense.

How cool is that? I just happened to have this in my desk drawer.
I am pointing to the the lower mounting hole, and you can see the upper one just over the light socket. This assembly is held in the truck with two 5/16 headed bolts. |
