    first do this-ClubGP Message Forum troubleshooting

    then below and you will have NO BOUNCE

    i adjusted mine so they fit nice and i re did the weather stripping on them fukk the bs weather strip they come with i now have a single piece running around the corners and all the way under neath the lights (automotive weather stripping from lowes/home depot)....no bounce AT ALL, tight fit, no big gaps just small ones on the inside no more than the stockers tho...they are perfect now....def glad i invested in them...

    i especially like how my thicker strip tightened up the corner fit.

    The weather stiping idea works pretty dang good!!!
    if you ever break your projector's brackets, fix them with oem brackets from the scrappers;

    your going to have to cut the stock one and use a plastic molder to bond it together, replace all part you want to beef up

    if the cleat coat is peeling, wet-sand and buff/polish then then re-apply some clear coat, should work good

    and the bouncing if there still is some: the oem bracket would've fixed most of it, the rest can be done by making sure all the screws and bolts on the projector/bracket are tight, then there is a little mod that i am planning and it is currently a secret but will be revealed sometime in the near future, it will give off a better look and eliminate the bouncing left

    i didnt see this before when i was trying to fix mine, wouldve helped alot but i got zipties, and basically aimed the lights a little lower than i wanted, then tied the bracket that holds the light's vertical adjustment to the car's metal bracket that the housing sits in. it's a little ghetto but it works okay, i only see them bounce over really harsh bumps or continuous rough sections of road.
