Yeah it's nice that they sell diy parts so you don't have to deal with rivets if you don't want to.
Ya, and as far as standing behind their product, I'm pretty sure they won't ever be beat. As a DIYer, rivets don't work well for me, but in all reality, with a bulletproof quality light and such a good warranty, being able to quickly tear apart the lights or not will be a non issue for 99.9% of folks out there. For non DIYers, this is THE light to buy IMO.

Chunky buggers! Don't like them either but this is the 550 so its not meant to be DIY'd anyhow.
Cheers. :bigjoint:

Looks sleek BTW, impressed on the heat sink temps with such a sleek design.
Right, this is the non-DIY version. I would think a DIY'er should be confident in their skills to remove rivets.
A rivet is no big deal to take out, takes about 5 seconds with a drill and the right size bit.
Basically, it wasn't made to be taken apart and messed with, but if you know what you are doing, it can easily be done.
