You could run your existing cables through a pocket at either end of the plate, since there is a small space between the plate and the LED panel for the wires. The majority of the panel will sit above the desk, but it would still be off center. A few things to consider: 1. Be careful to not pinch the wires when you clip the LED panel onto the plate. 2. Placing an additional anchor at the center of the plate for support, since you won’t be screwing it to the electrical box. 3. Depending on how much slack you have on your existing cables, you might need a bit more to connect the panel. Hope that helps!

You’re welcome! Not sure if it’s for the same reason, but I had a few gaps as well. My problems was the light wasn’t properly latched onto the base plate. I originally pushed up on the center of the light to slide and latch onto the base plate, but ended up with gaps on opposing sides. To fix it, it’s best if you push up on the opposing edges and slide. It took some effort, but light sits flush. If that doesn’t work, as long as the light is properly secured, command velcro strips seems like a good idea to close those gaps. Let me know if either of these work. Good luck!

You’re welcome. To remove, you just have to un-mount it from the plate; which can be done by pushing up while sliding to the left or right. It’s much easier than locking it in place. Hope that helps, if not let me know. Good luck!

@@nomonkeybusiness5802 I tried that and it won’t move.

I’m having the same issue. I’m an electrical contractor and one of my guys installed this light facing the wrong way. Now we can’t remove the dumb thing

I don’t have mine on a dimmer, but the panel is dimmable so there is no reason why it should not work with that particular brand. Sorry I could not give you a definitive answer, but let me know if it does work.

@@nomonkeybusiness5802 No worries. Thank you for the reply though

Quick update on my side. I still have not been able to remove the thing, but I was able to change the switch setting by pulling on the light corner where the switch is and moving the switch with my pinched finger. Not matter how hard I push to slide the lamp it still won't move. Hopefully it never goes bad, or I will have to brake it to remove it.

So glad u posted this. I am going thru the same thing. I want to switch the setting but it's pretty flush to the ceiling

@@dalegarza4198 I figured it out but not by sliding it back out. I can pull on the same corner where the switch is inside the panel and slid the switch to the position I wanted. I could have left it in the position that allows you to change the light by flicking the wall switch several times, but some of the kids that visit us from time to time figured out they could flicker the lights to change the color, so I needed a fixed temp and fixed it bu pulling the frame a bit and like I said, changed it. Done ✅

I know this is an old video but the 24” one I just purchased comes with the mounting plate securely clipped on to the back. Step 1 of the instructions says to mount the plate but I can’t figure out how to get the plate unattached from the fixture. I know there has to be a simple trick to it but this video skipped right over the one thing I needed to know.

Unsure if you are able to find this particular brand, as I purchased it at a local hardware chain, but should be able to order a similar one online. I found this one for your convenience, it actually includes two. amzn.to/3cRGHlN

@@nomonkeybusiness5802 i found some in melbourne here these people not suppling mounting brackets same as you fitted .

Ha ha ha ha..!!

I’m trying to remove it…it only lasted 5 years. How can you do it?

@@katedurand2369 u have to push up and slide the light off....They suck

why, what makes these not good for a slanted ceiling?

@@bekindtoanimals2189 Thanks jew

I will admit it’s a bit of a pain to lock into place. You have to push up on opposite edges and slide at the same time. Took me a few tries, but was able to get it latched. You can also widen a bit where the lamp latches onto the ceiling plate, that should help.

Yes ma’am
