        Except the vanagon squares do not slip into frames, the reflector has
the mounting tabs attached to it. Since the mounts are mirror on the lo/hi
reflectors, a separate reflector is needed for each side.
        The was a discussion on the list a while back about differences
between e-code lights and DOT lights. If remember correctly, one of the
differences was that the left beam pattern had a sharper left hand cutoff
so as not to blind on coming drivers. I could be very mistaken on that though.
