Installation on the SureFire X300 Ultra is straightforward. You simply align the shroud over the light and push it on until it's anchored. Then, two small set screws are tightened to securely lock the shroud in place.

What is the installation process for the Dark Matter Carbon Mitigation Shroud on a Streamlight TLR-1?

For the Streamlight TLR-1, you first remove the light's original bezel. A gasket is then placed on the light, followed by screwing the shroud into position. Finally, set screws are tightened to secure the shroud.
