The gray plastic headlight lamp isint locking in the hid bulb. Is there a way i can modify it in some sort of way to have them lock into place?
If you’re talking about the stock locks,there should be a round spring like insert to help hold/lock the bulb in place. You can also add a big sized O-ring to help lock it in as well,that’s what i had to do once,till i got the springs.
all i seen was just a gray plastic ring that locked my old headlamps in, and should i use a big rubber o-ring to secure it?
The spring like thing goes inside the cap/gray plastic ring,just find an O-ring that will fit inside “SNUG” and is just thick enough to push against the back of the bulb and makes the plastic ring tight.
I would also try looking in the bay or on the ground for the ring spring,cause you might of dropped it.
It was actually like that when I got the car. Its my first time doing hids. So what I’m thinkng was that the original owner prolly misplaced it.
its knid of a spring but a better visual would be that its a round washer thats kind of bent to press against the bulb…i had this issue with the locking too check the cap to see if the “washer” is there cuz mine got jammed in there and couldnt thread the cap on. theyre a bitch. just go to the junk yard and pocket one of these washers from a da…unfortunatly theres always one there
