clear it up
i dont have a big problem with the bucket rattling its actually the light fixture inside the bucket....It came with the frosted glass and I replaced it with the crystal clear lense and now it seems like the whole light assembly shakes in the bucket......does it need one of the new trim rings????? kind of puzzled
If it is the socket the bulb plugs into I would wrap some electrical tape (a fair amount) around the socket and put it back in. If it is the trim ring, do the same thing, wrap the outer edge of the light with a bund of electrical tape. Put back together and shake it too see if it has fixed the problem. My headlight started rattling after the last bulb change and it turned out I lost a small piece of plastic that would hold the trim ring firm in place. I wrapped it with electrical tape and is fine now. I could have gone to the dealer and gotten the piece I lsot, but this was quicker and easier.
