Well, that clip is not for me, but I do understand part of the cost. It is quite complicated. Nice idea, versatile.
Dealers should be stocking the clip. All parts and accessories are available to dealers to stock.
Here's a photo of one of the highways in Phoenix a week and a half ago (9/8). Could have used the Jeep (it's actually a Ford) with the snorkel there.
a bit off topic, but wow you got some serious flooding

That's really not bad at all, and it seems that configuration will work well even with the longer battery tubes. I'm liking the clip more and more... although the price is a bit steep.Dealers should be stocking the clip. All parts and accessories are available to dealers to stock.
Here's a photo of it attached to the bezel.
Way to go on the clips Henry 
Now let's get those extended battery tubes out

+1, can't wait! Hope not a limited run ..... fingers crossed!Now let's get those extended battery tubes out
Pretty cool surprise! I like it! I admit, I have a nice bike (related to my user name) but spend more time polishing it than riding, at my age the fragility of life becomes increasingly apparent. Will have to think about a jeep!
And I am not a clip guy, actually have removed them from all of my 8 HDS lights, but I like the engineering of the new one and understand the price.
Best,

Ingenious design, but unfortunately not good for deep pocket carry.
What is the black material on the clip? Is it stainless, plastic or aluminum?

I guess I'm in the minority. I don't really like the look of this at all. I'm sure it's engineered well but it looks clunky on an elegant design. I guess I was hoping for a replacement bezel with drilled holes even though I knew that wasn't the design, but I hope you guys enjoy your clips!
The MOLLE clip that use to come with the older generation lights looks a lot better to me, and that clip was widely regarded as an eye sore. The reintroduction of the screw holes on the bezel seems like such an easy and less expensive fix to the Rotary's clip issue, this new clip seems counter productive, less practical, and unnecessary IMO.

I agree about the screw holes, but too many that didn't use clips complained about the holes. I don't ever see them coming back.
I thought maybe a bezel with a recessed groove to tighten down on a clip as well as contacting the o ring.

Oh the drama of the once elusive clip continues ....

Well. It's clever. Quite fugly but well engineered. I guess I'll stick with the alternative. Too bad it's so rare.

Nice Gunga!
So the thicker glow o-ring helps raise the bezel in order to support the clip?
What size o-ring if you can remember?

Too bad I can't get the Moddoo clip to work bezel down. I've tried your bezel up solution several times and I've just found that I hate bezel up carry - it just doesn't work for me.

Yes. That is correct. It is a glow ring from Sigman. I believe it is 19mm.
You want the clip on the outside or you will screw up the reflector focus.
