[QUOTE="Scott D, post: 3699428, member: 336"] They are staying on the flash. They had to come off in order to wet-sand the old dull aluminum finish away. I figured it out. The push-button that is held in place with a set screw is pressed on, as well. :facepalm After the push-button was pulled off, I saw the brass part that screws downinto the bulb holder inside. I didn't have the proper spanner tool for this, but sticking the sharp end of a file down into the hole, and turning it loose while pushing down on the file got it out. Same thing worked for the part with the 4 pin sockets on the bottom, which I had already removed. Who said I was in a hurry?
