Default JDM 03 spec headlight

So i finally got around to swapping the ballast and bulbs over from my 01 usdm headlamps to my new 03 chrome housing Jdm headlamps. Everything went fine but my only concern/problem is 1: the hid bulb fits and locks in place but has a tiny amount of wiggle space and 2: the blinker (top small bulb housing) is to small to fit the hole, it's completely loose. Does anyone know where to source bulbs that will fit perfectly? Any help is great. Thanks guys.

Your first issue could be because the metal ring which holds the bulb in place is bent or out of shape. Is the bulb OEM or eBay special?

As for the second issue, the JDM headlight blinkers use a different socket/bulb. You either need to source it or modify your USDM one to fit into the JDM housing. I may have one JDM socket. I'll try to attach a picture here once I get home.

The bulb is Oem straight out of my usdm headlamps.

Awesome. Appreciate it if you could, would you maybe we willing to sell the Jdm socket housing?

I have a couple of sockets laying around and hopefully this is the correct one.
