Sidelight Holders - not very secure - SEAT Cupra.net

trebor737 · 14-09-2011, 15:53

Hi,

I have tried to change my sidelight bulbs today but now the sidelight holder doesn't seem very secure when trying to refit them into the main headlight unit again. It looks like as soon as i drive the lights will be bumping up and down and not in a fixed position. Is this normal or when refitting them is there a specific keyway to only fit them one way round etc?

Cheers

Don't think you've put them back in right if they're moving,
If the holder is secure and the buld is securly in the holder then they'll be fine

The bulb is in the holder okay, but the holder doesn't seem to be secure in the headlight unit. And therefore is a bit wobbly! I looked at the other side and doesn't seem the best either.
