answer 6

Yes. There is a plastic mount that is fixed onto the bike. The lights are then easily clipped / unclipped from the mount.
The mounts are also easy to remove if you only want them on there during the winter months.

answer 7

yes you attach a little frame for the light to your bike, and the light slides in and out of the frame in seconds, really easy to remove.

the frame would take longer to remove but once you have fitted it i cant see why you would need to remove it anyway

answer 5

These lights have rubber sealing throughout making them waterproof enough for winter showers and summer rain. But if you're going for a dip in the sea? Look for something else.

Just water resistant as lens clips onto body without additional seals.

answer 7

The rear one has a rubber seal, but the front one didn't appear to, however they do fit together quite snugly, so I suspect as long as you don't dunk them in the sink you'll be ok.
