There was a black metal bracket that came in the same box with the reflectors. Does anyone know what it is used for?

No. It wasn't shown or mentioned in the three different manuals that were sent and also completely useless. I figured it must've fallen out of someone in shipping and receiving's drink.

You can attach it next to the rear cassette (the group of little cogs in ascending sizes to change gears) to protect it from getting knocked around. You see these sometimes on kid's bikes. I personally don't like them and tossed it.

Working on it now and as a mechanically-challenged person, I'm grateful to see this questions and answers. Thanks!

I believe it gets fitted near the gearset to protect the gears and selector.

My retail box did come with a low profile bracket included, so I see no reason why yours should not come with a low profile bracket as well.

There are two holes on the bracket. We had to drill our holes but it was not a problem. The mirrors are worth it.

It is some sort of a mechanical interface with bolts and friction involved. It did not fit my external mirror, so I have not installed it yet. I am thinking how to fix it using other means. If you do not want to spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to fix it - do not buy.

I received this and the modeling bulb is pretty flimsy. Is it not supposed to be all times? Just when it flashes? Also, what is that metal attachment piece for that came in its separate plastic package? Is that a reflector holder? Or a spare? Thanks...

I also needed just the refractor, but couldn't find one anywhere. So, I bought this refractor with the reflector attached and it worked out fine. It was easy to put on. Your old reflector comes off with a couple of screws. This reflector/refractor should line up with the holes in your light. If not, you can drill holes in this reflector to match your holes. The refractor is attached permanently to the reflector. It's been a while since I put the new one on, but I,m pretty sure the top diameter of the reflector was about 5". Thats the measurement you need to be concerned with. This should fit your light Brian, and a simple job. I also needed just the refractor, but couldn't find one anywhere.

Yes, that's what I used it for. However, I used the original metal brackets instead of the provided plastic ones as the fit is better.

It has a bracket connecting to the light, with a bolt washer and nut to mount

Softboxes mount to the light, not to a stand. That is why you have to buy one with a speed ring for your light.

This part includes the black outer part of the mirror that you can see in the picture as well as the mirror, which comes already attached to the black outer cover,with what you might be referring to as a bracket.

Not sure where to get an exact copy but a metal supply store or home improvement might have something close enough. Is just a U shaped bracket with a couple holes for screws. Hope this helps.

Bracket is metal with rubber pads, but it may help to put locktite on threads to keep them tight anyways

Thanks EvanThat does make sense.I have also since found out this item is discontinued by Celestron and replaced by the avx mount. May hunt to buy one of those instead but imagine same applies.

Both brackets in the photo comes as a set . It worked well for me . I purchased 4 sets . They are still on my customers tv's at his hotel.

The metal plate simply covers the hole left by removing the reflector bulb. It might cut down on any drafts coming through the fixture or maybe stop some bugs from crawling in. Maybe it also affords some fire resistance. If you're installing a cover over the hole anyway, I wouldn't worry about skipping the metal cover plate. It does not provide any structural function.

There is a helpful video on YouTube for this. Just enter product name in the search. It was helpful to me that they showed best way to mount the reflector: put it on the socket first with logo positioned on the side as when the light is in the upright position. Then add the wire rods with the velco'd corner one going last.

Bracket that comes with mirror is made to grip existing rear-view mirror from top and bottom. You could fabricate a simple "hanger" that would slip over the top of the monitor and support the mirror. This would probably look pretty tacky.
