AK,

I'm assuming you're asking about the spacers correct? If so, you cannot use crazy glue. Crazy glue is too watery to form any kind of a shape. The acidity will also damage the LED panel. You have to use a hot glue gun, one where you insert a rubbery tube like substance into a gun that heats it and turns it into a thick jelly like thing that hardens as it dries. I recommend you practice a few times on two plastic pieces to get the method down if this is your first time. If you mess up, the LED panels are now garbage.

The white cover comes off but you must stick a very small flat head to one of the corners and pry with a good amt of pressure. The trick is that one corner of every housing has the most amt of clearance for the flat head to fit. You just have to find that corner by prying lightly on each corner and feel which one has grabs and has most leverage. Once you found the corner, just hold the entire housing with your hand and push and pry pretty hard outward. Keep applying more pressure til you hear a big crack and break loose the hardened glue from the factory.


Dark Path,

To be honest with you, i have no information on the led panels. These panels were leftovers from past projects that go back 3 years. I just found them laying around and decided to see if it fits. You can go to any lighting hardware store with the housing and do a testfit. If it fits, you know what model they are. Gluck!
