Default Headlight Vibration issue...

I've got the APC Xenon 9005 and 9006 bulbs.

When i'm driving, and drive over a bump, I notice the low beam light wiggle. I popped the cover off, and checked to see if it was loose. but the bulb was inserted tightly.

Has anyone had this problem? I've had them in there a year, so I dont remember if my stock bulb had the same issue.

check the stops for the whole assy, not just the bulb.

I failed to mention that this problem is only the passenger side.

Thanks

Catch it quick. On my car the cap on the pin wasn't installed and the pin slid out. I am waiting until Carlisle so I can measure for a new pin. It looks about 3/8 in diameter. My pin is somewhere on the highway. In the alternative the nylon bearing could have worn out.
