We put the units together as a team so nothing would fall into the bathroom sink. When we placed them in the fixture - it was night and day of the old look. We did get brighter bulbs that were frosted to give off more light. The white shade pops against the wrought iron. They are light in weight and were easy to move around. We placed them a bit lower to truly cover the fixture.
I wish I knew about these when I renovated my last 2 bathrooms! I had those ugly mirrored lights in all of them and changed them out to a new light. These were so easy to use it was crazy! Literally, it took me longer to open the box then to put up these light covers and they made all the difference! I have an 8-light fixture that needed updating and when I felt it was a bit pricey, they recommended using 2- 25" covers instead. This not only reduced the price but it made them even easier to install than 1 large one. If you are thinking about using these, if you have a metal light frame they are easy-peezy!!!!
