    My right front light bounces really hard when i go over bumps and **** like that..The left one is fine and snug in place, but the right one i can grab and move it up and down. Is there something loose or should i just get some rubber and put it under the light?

    sounds like the headlight bracket is broken or its just got really flexable over time.

    Put some weather stripping under in to stop the bounce.

    Just finally fixed mine by looking at another thread. The best solution I have found is get some Styrofoam about say 2 inches thick and about 4 to 6 inches long and stick the piece between the metal on the bumper and the bumper cover just below the headlights. You may need to slightly bend the mounting on the frame of the car where the lights attach to but that will definitely fix any problem with bouncing. You can even use a piece of wood to do it also like say a 2 by 4 but I wouldn't recommend that because of it getting wet
