There's actually been a revised unit that is being sold. I'm not sure of the part number but its not as easy to replace as the first and 2nd revision. This new part requires you to trim the middle tab that sticks down in the opening. After the tab has been cut, you need to use touch up paint to make sure the exposed metal doesn't rust where the cut was made. The new housing is a real tight fit also, but I still haven't had any issues with it breaking. If your not good with diy or tools, have it done professionally and make absolutely sure you or the person installing the new light paints the metal where the tab was cut or grinded off or it will rust.
