Thanks, Andreas.

   And just to make it a little more insane: Have you thought at all about attaching the faces of the cube from the inside in order to preserve clean edges?

If it were possible -- or rather, if I had been able to figure out a way to do it, I would have made the cube with clean edges. But I’m not sure it is possible, at least, not just using headlight bricks.

If anyone can come up with a way to make a headlight mosaic cube with clean (or cleaner) edges, I’d love to see it. My only thought for a slightly cleaner look would be to apply 196 1x1 light gray tiles to cover the studs showing on the edges. I only have about 10 instances of that piece in that color in my collection, though, and the going price on Bricklink seems to be around 50 cents per piece (yikes!). And still, that would only make it somewhat cleaner. The bottoms of the headlight bricks would still be showing. Still, if I had the tiles, I’d slap them on...
