Okay,

I've tried different methods on how to mount these things lol. So far, i've done epoxy and two metal bars to hold them up. So far so good, but the epoxy just gives after a while.

Anybody else have these installed or can point me in the right direction on how to properly mount these so they dont move please.

Thanks.

I had extra of those metal tab/clips that holds the stock lenses in place. I added a couple more of those, reuse the stock sealer and baked the headlight to melt the seal back together.

Yep thats the only thing I did. Keep the holes on the brackets slotted to allow for adjustability.

Yeah its weather stripping. It allows for a water tight seal:
