I would like to turn the clear plate around so it fits edge to edge, but as the
centres are both able to receive a stud they don't fit. Is there a stud to
stud joint? i cant use a bar as the bar with claw isnt long enough to go through
the grey to then hold the inverted clear. I need some form of claw on the back
hence the stud on the rear as its being mounted to a bar.

Thanks
Mandy

I know you want a clip on the end, but depending on the build you're working
with, you can use this part:
 
Part No: 22484  Name: Bar   1L with Tow Ball
*

Parts: Bar
and then maybe you can replace the bar or whatever it's supposed to clip
to with one of these parts:

Yes it actually does fit that last one! I've seen that combo before, but
I don't remember where. Whether it was in an official set or not, Stud.io
treats that connection like any other joint, so I would say it's perfectly
"legal"

Brilliant, Thankyou. I will get one of those on order to try. I like the twin
claw option as that should fit better with my build design where im trying to
get 3 of these lights spaced across 10 stud width.
