I just bought this? - 48" 760W Metal Halide Aquarium Reef Light

OK, I just bought this light for my 75.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...id=p2759.l1259

I know it's not a 'brand' name, but the seller had quite a bit of positive feed back. Needless to say, I bought the light. I am having one problem with it though; the two HQI lights on the inside are loose and I can't figure out how to get to them to fix them in place. I could get to them, but I don't want to take the whole fixture apart to fix the problem. Have gone through the packing material twice looking for an instruction manual and there is none.

I thought someone here might have the same light and know how I can get in to get to the lights? I have figured out how to get to the 4 CF lights. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you to the private message that helped me get the lights up and working! I have the light set up and dang!! I love it. I don't know how I went so long with out one of these! Really looks nice.

I will tell you one thing about the seller. The shipping took much longer than expected, so I assume that s/he does not keep these in stock. Lucky for me, I am patient. Outside of that and there being no instruction manual included...... I really like it! I'd buy from the seller again.
