Don't worry...witholding bad news is worse than the bad news itself

I've already test fitted the bracket. It's a tight squeeze, but it does fit. However, that bracket is probably going to disappear anyway, since I'm considering a new idea. Also, since the vast majority of the original reflector will be hidden, I can also cut most of it away. I just need to keep enough to maintain its structural integrity.

*EDIT* Speaking of bad news, I'm going to hold an "engineering review" when I'm done. Basically, I show the final product and everyone looks it over and shoots holes in it looking for problems. That way the design can be tweaked so it's perfect.
