Abstract: A tool for use in installing a bulkhead within a structure is provided. The tool includes a base member configured to couple to the structure, and a positioning member configured to couple to the bulkhead. The base member includes a primary fastener hole sized to receive at least a portion of a fastener therethrough, and sized such that the fastener is configured to bias against the base member to retract the positioning member towards the base member when the fastener is engaged with the positioning member.

Abstract: An apparatus and method according to one or more embodiments are provided for a tool that guides a drill in drilling a hole at an angle substantially perpendicular to a non-planar work surface. The tool may be implemented, for example, as a portable drill assist tool that rests unsecured on a non-planar work surface substantially perpendicular to a target hole formed within the non-planar work surface. In one example, an apparatus includes a main body having a through hole formed therein. The through hole is configured to receive a drill bushing and an alignment pin. The apparatus further includes at least three legs configured to independently translate relative to the main body to contact the non-planar surface and maintain the through hole substantially perpendicular to the non-planar work surface when the alignment pin is passed through the drill bushing and into the target hole.

Abstract: A lamp housing assembly is provided for mounting upon the facia of a motor vehicle. In one embodiment, the lamp housing assembly may be useful in housing and mounting a fog lamp to a motor vehicle. The lamp housing assembly includes a cup-shaped body having a key formed on the upper surface of the body. A mounting bracket is provided which includes a first portion having a keyway, which may be engaged with the key to attach the mounting bracket to the cup-shaped body. The mounting bracket also includes a second portion which extends beyond the cup-shaped body for attaching the mounting bracket to the facia.
