Its a tight fit, you will have to "jam" it in. Just work on it and you will get it. It was a pita when I did the install.

I FIGURED IT OUT!!!!! the HID kit 9006 comes w/ a red O ring around the bulb.. guess what ITS TOO THICK... so I switched out the red O ring with the stock Yellow O ring which was much thinner.. and it was a perfect fit.
