I have installed a 7" aftermarket lens in 7" housing and is wobbling after trim put on any ideas??

 

Have you tried to put back the original parts? If it fixes the problem you know it's the new housing and lens. If not, you know those are good and it's how you have things connected.

 

I bought a Hella E-code lamp for a Jeep, to use with a HID bulb. It was loose also, so I picked up a piece of soft nylon tubing, Tygon is one brand, about 1/4" OD. Made a sort of O-ring, I used a piece of stick to stick into each end of the tubing to join them together. Anyway, I made it a little smaller than the outside of the lamp, and put the trim piece on with my contraption between the lamp and the trim. Worked great. Still running it today. BTW, the HID bulb with the E-code housing is awesome, no glare to oncoming traffic.

 

I just remembered, the Jeep lamp had three or four little chrome tabs on the back of the lamp; I had to cut those off also.

 

I need a little help. I have a 2006 softail Deluxe, the turnsignal/runner bulb was recenly replaced with the wrong wattage bulb, now my headlight only goes vey dim, but the highbeam indicator light is on. I changed the turnsignal bulb to the correrct wattage but the headlight is still very dim and wont go to high beam at all.

 

Sorry to threadjack, but....

Where did you put the ballast? What was your wiring method?

 

The ballast fits behind the fork cover on my heritage nicely. The ballast gets it's power from the power wire going TO the headlight ho/lo switch, not the low beam wire, and the high beam continues to get powered from the high beam wire. No relay is necessary. I actually was able to pull the wires from the new bulb socket, to get it installed in the existing bucket, so I didn't have to cut/splice the wires, but either way is fine. I think that's it! The Hella E-code housing is the key to this. It really prevents the hid light from scattering so much, blinding everyone. I have had noone "flashing" me due to the glare.

 

I PC'd my headlight when i reassembled, it too wobbles. Im thinking when i bolted in the mount in, there may be a torque spec for the rubber and i possibly over tightened. Still havent looked into it tho. Just a guess.
