Default deuce/train headlight help.

ive ran into a slight problem, im wanting to use the stock deuce bucket and trim ring with the 08 train headlight. the problem is the old deuce sealed beam was held in with spring wires and when i install those on the 08 train light the deuce trim ring will not go on correctly. is there a way to get the headlight to fit good and snug somehow without the wires.
