    What do you mean you cant find out how to hang them? Use an eye bolt and a butterfly nut and that is what goes in the ceiling. Get some cable and cable clamps and then it depends on how it attaches to your light. It looks like teks use a bolt that is threaded attaches to the light. I think its worth the cash to buy the co's bracket, they will look so much better.
