Refitting Focus MK2 Zetec S Facelift headlights

Hi all,

Recently purchased a Focus MK 2 Zetec S, have changed headlight bulbs and I have noticed the nearside headlight unit does not go back in place properly.

I have a 1cm approx gap between the unit and the top of the bumper. 

I have taken the unit in and out again but to no avail.

Offside unit went back in no problem. Is each unit refitted differently?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Have you checked that the bottom mounting arm is seated properly?
    Iirc the arm can be removed from the light unit and may not be pushed in correctly.

    Everything looks in order regarding mounting arms. Everything looks in order in fact, but the headlight refuses to go back in properly and I’m fresh out of ideas

    I'd remove the light, reseat the lower bracket and refit ensuring the bracket is seated fully into the slot on the slam panel.
