drl p13w install help please!!!!

i ordered the p13w led daytime running lights for the 2ss/rs, upon install putting the led housing is just seems like it doesn't fit i don't have the harness that runs to the halos and really would like to avoid that ( i like the aggressive eyes at night). so i put them in and turn them in the housing and when i do the wiggle like 3/8 to half an inch wiggle i don't want them to fall out while im driving what do i do??

some have taken the rubber fitting around the 'old' bulb you remove and add it to the new one when installing. It takes out that extra wiggle room.

This! Use the o-ring from the old DRL to help with the looseness.

If you got a set like that from me, send it back and i will replace them, add a note with whats not right and the watts and color.
