Blackhousing Fitment Issue..... - SRT Forums

2005 RED SRT-4 · 07-20-2008, 10:34 PM

Is there a way to adjust the fitment of the black housing headlights. I installed a set today and I used brand new factory gaskets, but I still have a slight gap on the bottom where the headlight doesn't meet up with the bumper, is there a way to fix this? Any info from the headlight guru's would be greatly appreciated.

i pulled the rubber black gasket off my stock lights and put them on the black housing ones..filled everything up nicely..no gaps or anything

See that's what I don't understand I have BRAND NEW stock gaskets on these and am still getting a slight gap on the bottom. Is there a way to adjust the bumper or anything like that to get it closer to the headlights?

No, if anything you will have to mod the headlight, the part that holds to the frame and somehow make it close. I have this same problem. Mine is not really noticeable though unless u are pretty close.

what u can try is the top bumper screw holder(closest to headlight) you can un-loosen it and press the bumper in towards the headlight so it fills the gap,and than tighten the screw

Yeah mines not really noticeable unless you are close to it as well but it still drives me nuts.
