Hi

I've just changed my headlight bulbs and i cant help but notice there's a gap under each light. I cant actually recall if it was there before i removed the headlights but i just wanted to know if its normal or have i cocked up somewhere?

    It could be just the bumper needs slotting back into place this was the case with my Fiesta gave it a few wiggles upwards and it moved into place, otherwise open your bonnet unscrew the headlight bolts and try moving them into the slot then screw the bolts back in. That seems to big of a gap just to be normal.

    i had this when i changed mine a few weeks ago, all i did was fiddle with it and it sort of made it smaller but there is still a gap.

    Well I checked the light fitting and it's spot on. However there is quite a bit of play in the front bumper, I've reduced the gap but there's still a gap.
