Hi,
Is there an easier way to install a recessed light than having to use the clips that usually come with the package to keep the bracket in place and secure. I had to remove some recessed lights to check the wiring recently, and it was extremely difficult. I could not get these clips off. Eventually i was able to get the recessed light fixture out, but had done a bit of damge to the bracket in trying to get the clips out. The clips are basically useless now as well (they are all bent up).
If there are no other options than to use these clips, where would i be able to purchase replacement clips for these? Can these be purchased at places like Home Depot, or do they need to be ordered from the manufacturer of the fixture bracket.
