Default Driver's Side Fog Light

My driver's side fog light bounces/vibrates/jumps etc very badly. I have had it back to the dealership 5 times and they cannot fix it. I read somewhere on this site that if you have the cold air intake that the filter may interfere with the foglight installation. Can anyone give me more info or how to fix?

Love my xB

What you need to do is place something between the intake and fog light so that it does not push the fog-light out of place...try using the search button because I believe that many others have had the same problem, and my solutions have been found...

Hmmm ~ Same problem here ! I have not had the time to look at the light, but it was loose, pushed it in and also opened the hood and grabbed the back of the light and pulled hard, have not retested because of the rain.

The wires are pointing down, that's your problem. I took out the light and reinstall with the wires pointing up. That should take care of your problem. I did my about a yr ago and no more bouncing
