I've had many issues with sidemarkers in the past, obviously as I've had 3 pairs now. Passenger side is somehow perfect BTW. Does anybody know if there's a fix to this that I can do? I've even thought of zip-tying it somehow cuz of how annoyed I am at the poor sidemarker design on these cars but there's literally nothing back there to zip tie it to. Does anybody have any input on what I can do? Any common fixes? I've tried searching but have found nothing

Help me please!

Mine were the same till I got the actual JDM ones, and gave the helix ones to a friend, but I also found that I may have installed them incorrectly, after installing my first set of win jets, and found the pop clip that is vertical straight up into the bumper wasn't correctly inserted on my part and now they fit fine
