your headlight seal is probably going bad. you should replace it.

Had not thought of that. I'll look into it. Thanks

Yup. It's the seals. Mine do the same thing. I bought new seals from the dealer and the problem is they are very different from the seals that are on the car now.
Old: rubber like material. Seems hollow and thin
New: more like a thick rubber or foam material. A lot thicker than the old seal.
Problem is, I pushed and pushed and pushed and the seal was too thick compared to the old seal. It just didn't want to go on. I have a picture comparing the two I can try to find.
If anyone knows a trick it would be much appreciated.

Yikes, that is a lot different and I can see how it would not fit in the channel.Yup. It's the seals. Mine do the same thing. I bought new seals from the dealer and the problem is they are very different from the seals that are on the car now.

Yeah actually the seal would go into the channel. The lens wouldn't clip with it in there. Sorry I could have worded it better.
