Does the mirror "wobble" when you press on one side, top, bottom or the other??? I imagine you just don't have one of the ball sockets engaged. Press firmly with the palm of your hand and make sure all 3 "*****" pop into their respective sockets. There are 3 of them, if one is not engaged then behaior like you describe will occur.

Wankel... Check to see if you put al the sockets in, there are 2 green ones that control the mirror. Just put a cloth over the mirror and push in until you hear all 3 clicks. I did mine today... pretty easy

Great job everyone!
It looks like we are nearing the end of the puddle lamps. 50 was the cap and we are 4 more units away from that. I had really thought the Fog Lamp would have been a bigger hit than it was... never-the-less, there are still plenty Fog units left... so maybe you want to consider getting one as well before we officially end this GB!

I see that you have a shipped status for the Red_Menace shipment #40. I have not received the shipment yet and was hoping to get a status on the shipment.

Thanks,

Hmmm ... they were shipped last Saturday to the Madison, AL address you requested. Have you checked there??? If they don't show up this week (which is way too long to begin with) ... I'll send another set. Let me know.

Mystery "solved" ... they showed up "Return To Sender" today ... I botched the address. I re-addressed the package and re-sent it this afternoon ... should be there in a couple of days. Sorry for the screw up.

Hey, got all my jank installed. The puddles look fine and the fog however I'm unsure of. The top of it hangs out what feels like 1/8 of an inch on the top of it. Is it supposed to be flush? I have the one WITHOUT the accent btw. If it isn't flush, how do I go about alinging the cross stitch pattern thingie.

You can check this by looking behind where the lamp is installed and check to see if the neck of the lamp (the receptacle for the bulb assembly) is resting on the bottom of the hole. If it is, then you need to carefully remove a bit more material to lower the neck and allow the top of the lamp to properly seat.

Also check to make sure there is no flash or burrs around the hole that would prevent the lamp from properly seating.

Last, the lamp housing is made from an exact mold of the rear rotor recess in the lower rear apron. Well over 100 have een installed with zero failures. It should fit like a glove. Check to make sure that where you have cut the hole matches up with the lamp. The retaining ring provides plenty of flange for holding the assembly in the recess. In other words, the hole does NOT have to be precisely cut around the neck of the receptacle. Just eye-ball it and look to make sure some small amount of the "cross stitch pattern thingie" above the hole is not preventing the assembly from properly seating.

It sounds like you are real close ... just a bit more finessing.
