Has anyone used the Permatex "PowerBead RTV can? Does it work well?

I have already opened a set and retrofitted with evox-r projectors. They drop right in.

I highly doubt they are Hella projectors. Probably a copy of the E55 which makes a retrofit cake. Can't wait for mine to get here Thursday and check them out. Going to have to wait a bit for the retrofit goodies with an anniversary trip around the corner.

I just got mine. Are the projectors supposed to wiggle around?

Edit: Looks like that ball socket popped out? What's the best way to get it reattached?

Just got a set In tonight. Same thing. Last build had the same as well. I was able to pop it back into place by grabbing the projector and pushing or pulling to snap it back into place.

That's funny. I was able to easily get the outside ones but one of the headlights had both off. The one on the adjuster side was a little harder but I was able to get them with my hands and some thick nitrile gloves.
