Headlights rattling?
Thursday, April 02, 2009 5:43 PM
Lately I have noticed while driving at night, it seems like my headlights are "rattling." The reflection off the signs looks like my headlights are bouncing violently. Not really sure how to explain it. I am not sure if it has always been like this, but I have just noticed it in the past few months. The housing seems to not move very much, and the bulbs look secure inside of there.

Anyone have a clue what I am talking about????

I notice the same since I installed my HID's. I think it's the little clips on the back of the housings that is loose.

For starters they're poorly mounted by GM. All you can do is check the tightness of the 2 bolts mounted to the body just behind
the assembly.

Heh, didn't think it was going to be that easy. The two metal clips in back are what creates the stability. Quick bend of the clips and I am rock solid!
