Hi

I need a permanent sollution for my loose headlight (actually Honey's headlight)

BMW secures the light at three points i.e one screw on either side of the headlight, while the bottom has a rubber thingamaching that just fits "securely" over a metal bobbin.

Problem is - that rubber mount cum piece of shit at the bottom gradually wears out till the headlight bounces so much, one can hardly see the road. Now whenever I hit a bump this thing jumps out and the light shines in it's moer in.

Replaced the rubber several times, but the BMW design doesn't work.

Anybody with a similar problem but a long term sollution? 

...or advise please  :thumleft:
