Hi,
How do you mount a quad cfl on a DIY canopy since the regular twin bulb clips wouldn't work on them.

Q. The lamp clips I got from you don't fit on this 96W Coralife Quad bulb, what do I do now?
A. Your clips can be easily modified to work with this bulb. Place them in a vice, and bend the lips "up". It's hard to explain in words, but basically your clips would form a "U" shape. Just keep adjusting them until you can fit it on the bulb.
