Brett, looks awesome dude! Are those plastic zip ties holding your lights on? Are you worried they might get brittle over time?

The same zip ties are holding those massive 30lb boulders together for my largest tower so here's hoping they're built to last haha. The rockwork eventually fuses together courtesy of the sps (I learned this dismantling my 97) but yeah I may need to use some threaded bolts for the lights later good call.

The plate that they mount to does not get hot I already checked into that. If they're going to fail it'd be from pure old age (they're uv resistant too).
