Sidelight bulb housing loose

Recommended Posts

I've recently replaced the side light bulbs in my HR with some Osram W5W LED's, I'd tried using cheaper eBay LED's however these typically started flickering after a week of use.


I installed the new bulbs today, and the one on the right is not working anymore.


The socket you push the bulbs into was quite loose on the right hand side which I believe is the issue.

 

The plastic socket looks quite weak/brittle though, so I'm not sure if clamping it so its a bit tighter would damage it.

 

Has anyone got any recommendations for what I can do here?  


I've had to take the wheel and arch liner off about 3 times each side now, so I'm hoping I can finally fix this for good!

 

Thanks for the help
