Grizzly, do you have factory housings? I put a set in my buddy's 80 when he came to visit a month ago and if I remember correctly the O-ring seats the bulb. No? If OE housings, ill ask and see what's up. On my 100 series, they were much tighter and harder to lock into place.
Send me an email with your findings and ill forward it on. Thanks[/QUOTE
Hey Shane,
I have the exact same problem with my 100 series bulbs that just came in... very loose when in, to the point that I dont think they seal out water/ dust at all and I'm afraid they will fall out as they move around and don't lock in place...
They are definitely super bright !!
I have a lost box from DHL that has 40 sets, with that said I will compare when I get them or with my truck.
I can tell you that 9005 and 9006 are different and I am an idiot for putting them in backwards. My girl told me that they were not correct and I thought she was pulling the girl card. Sure enough I swapped them somehow when I removed my HID's. I do remember that that once I swapped them they were beyond tight. Like TIGHT and If I remember one locks counter clock wise, not sure why?
I have been fighting kidney issues for over a week and just plain dont want to go outside as it's cold and when I have meds in my I am freezing to the point I am a huge puss. So in the next few days I will tear mine apart and shoot video or pictures.
This is important to me as I tested the 9005/9006/H4 with ZERO issues.
I have the 2007 front end and the lows are outside and highs are the inside, not sure about the early years.
