HELP with HID

[QTOOSEEMEE]

think this topic has been covered but just cant find it.

i had trouble putting the H7 into my 2003 sportivo. for some reason it doesnt sit tight so it moves around. i took it to the car electrician, they said that it;ll cost 150 bucks for the to play around with my bulb adapter thing that holds my orignal bulb on it. there gonna drill holes into it and wire the HID bulb into it then put it in the headlight so it wont move around.

is this necessary?! how did you guys get your HID bulb to sit tightly.

I had the same problem as you on the weekend had me there for an hour trying to work it out, Well you can either use cardboard to make a frame so the clip, clips onto it, or just make sure you can make it hella straight and superglue it but only with a dot of glew so it'll Rip out when the bulb dies.

same problem on my sportivo. no need to waste $150. the bulb doesnt sit tight cause the clip is made for the thicker stock bulbs. all you need to do is wrap some electrical tape at the end of the bulb then clip it on. if its still doesnt sit tight just wrap more. tell me how it goes.

cheers

Cable ties is your best friend! :-D Probaly it does not look as aesthetic a a custom bracket but it sure does the job.
