I got my headlights today and went to install. The passenger side was great, driver side is a whole different story. Looking at the photo above maybe this is the same issue?
My projector is totally loose and flopping inside the headlight, I couldn't really tell how it was attached and getting pretty frustrated so I stopped and decided to just throw them on the truck to see how they looked. Waiting to see what the seller says, but if it's as easy as popping it back in a tab I should be able to handle that, I just could not find where it attached tonight.
Drivers side w/projector and 6000K HID. Passenger side 6000K HID halogen bucket.

Hope you get that worked out and are happy with the end result, cause they do look good.

I had a projector that was loose like that in the video as well. Both of the ball sockets had come off. The outside ball socket is easy as pie to get on which the other headlight had the outer loose. The inner one is a whole different animal. It took quite some time for me to get it back on. I was only using my hands though. I didn't want to damage anything. The joints in my fingers were actually sore afterwards lmao. My inner / outer descriptions are if you were looking at the front of the truck.

This happened to me as well. And in return I asked for r $318 headlights with the LED strip around it pre-wired for plug and play. Almost kinda glad they showed up broken because I love the replacements especially since you can get them pre wired. Literally plug n play when you get them outta the box. (See my build thread for a picture of the headlights I'm talking about)

I know this bulbs are using H7, how are you guys adding HID's on them? Does it have a metal plate that goes up and down, just like the OEM ones? By the way it looks really good!

Man, I wish they had these for a Ranger. The ones I had custom built leave a lot to be desired.

I was looking at the same ones... I figure they are since they are from the same Ebay seller "vipmotoz"

I'd imagine they are the same. But I'm pretty sure what you're thinking is a C bar light is just the reflection of the chrome. Mine were purchased from a different seller (cheaper too) and they are just like the factory HIDs. No C bars. Those in your link may be different than mine but I'm pretty sure they're the same thing.
