HID / Xenon headlight jiggle

JAOz · 02-16-2015, 07:15 PM

I am a new 370z owner. I own a '15 sport tech model.
I was wondering if anyone else notices the light from their headlights "jiggle" when going over some bumps. I don't think it's a loose assembly or anything like that. Is it maybe more from the "insides" of the bulb? Are these kind of lights extra sensitive to sharp bumps in a tight suspensioned vehicle like ours? I've googled this issue and it does pop up quite a bit with other cars including mustangs, mercs, audis, etc. It appears to be a "normal" thing. But, I'm suspicious. Let me know your thoughts and experience with this issue. Thanks!

i dont ride my 09 that often in the dark, but i dont remember the illumination jiggling.. check the lamp's mounts and screws just in case.
