Hello!

if you turn the piece on its back its exactly two plates high) but
Ivehardly ever used it this way. You can see it applied here:

I was totally surprised by this when I rebuilt this set for the first
time.
I had no idea that they could be used this way!

I wonder what purposes the turned headlight bricks serve in the place you
showed. They seem to be there just for the looks. Or wait: Does the base
of the
headlight give support to the transgreen Facet Top? Turning the headlight
brick
makes its base stand out by 1/6 brick-width. (Which makes it additionally
hard
to use it this way since you dont always have the room to absorb this
outstanding 1/6 brick-width.)

I know. Its not a particularly useful configuration (Ive never used it so
far!), I just wasnt aware of it and I like finding out stuff like that.

Its a pretty useful snot techniquie actually. Any brick you connect to the stud
on the side will be flush on the bottom face, which can be useful.
I used it in this moc
fairly extensively.
Cheers,
