without damaging existing wiring or structures. Avoid locations where lines, anchors, sails or
otherhazardsmightcausedamagetothelight.

2. Remove the large foam gasket from the box and use it as a template for the footprint of the
light. Note: Front mounting holes are further apart than rear mounting holes. Mark the location
