    I have had my Sunpod for about 2 years and last month when cleaning the bulb when I tried to put the lugnut back on to replace the UV shield, the metal screw thats attached to the fixture snapped off. Now I have only 3 of those screws with nuts on them. Has this ever happened to anyone else? It is usable now but if another one were to break from replacing the bulb then I could not use the fixture because 2 screws might allow salt creep into the bulb area. My fixture is 36inches with 2 150 watt bulbs.

    Can you just replace the screw?
