Has anyone managed to source S-Line, Audi or Quattro door projector lights that don't rattle.
I purchased these :

and had a feeling they were going to make a noise as I was fitting them.

And yup !!!! they rattle away annoyingly.

I dissected them tonight and it's the 2 plastic lenses inside the main projection lens tube.
I tried gluing them in place but the glue contaminated the lenses on one set. That along with the fact the connector was poor & intermittent meant they all ended up in the bin due to being such poor quality..

I would therefore be interested to know what others have purchased.

I should imagine they'll all the same cheap tat churned out of a factory in china (i had some on my old a3). I would suggest a couple small spots of silicone to try and hold them in place but will probably get in the way of the lense too much.

I tried silicon but very fiddly.
A small strip of double sided tape may suffice, but I need a new one now due to a blob of super glue getting on the lens.

It's annoying the genuine ones are so expensive. Saw this.
