I received a pair of black housing headlights and the install was really easy except i noticed my driverside unit is loose....any suggestions to tighten it up? and also it obviously makes that light point straight to the road.....do you think that if i adjust the beam height that will effect how tight it is?

When I got my lights (eBay lights) The capsule was loose on the frame. I had to take bolts out and put a washer behind each one because the hole wasnt deep enough. Or the bolt was too long? Either way that fixed mine.


Off topic tho: Did you have to wrestle yours into th mounting tab slots?

Try swapping the OEM headlight bracket on, I'm assuming the ebay lights' bracket is plastic instead of metal?
