It should not rattle. Either tighten the trim ring more or take the trim ring off. Their should be two rubber pieces at the top of the headlight housing, 10 and 2 o'clock position, that slip onto two little metal standoffs. Those should keep it from rattling...
my question is does it affect the light any? When riding at night I wish I had more light, I just am wondering if it cuts down on visability? Does it restrict the light up area?
These things take time. Search Craigslist, this site, eBay... if funds are limited. This one came off an 08 Road King. Sold the Road King mounting bracket on eBay and found a Fatboy bracket locally for cheap.
One thing no one mentioned, they actually do add some light... lol I plan on changing the bulbs from 35w to 50w halogen. Need to see those deer sooner...
KumaRide is right, my two rubber pieces were gone, I think I lost them when I changed my light bulb last year. I put 2 little rubber pieces on the tabs and fixed the problem, it is nice and tight now, trim ring also aligns the headlight flush.
