Default Help With HID'S!

I have a scion tc, and I recently bought a HiD Conversion kit 6000K. My low beam are 9006, and I double checked the HID's are 9006 as well. My problem is when I put the HID light bulb into the housing it doesn't want to lock in place. So it's just fits but doesn't lock.I checked doubled check and the bulbs are 9006. I don't know what else to do. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Nope, It doesn't want to turn into a lock position.

Well, do your HIDs light up? Just push in a little harder. If it still doesn't lock in place, maybe the manufacturer didn't cut it properly, but if it holds then I wouldn't worry about it.

Thanks everyone for the help. I figured out what was wrong and the manufacture didn't cut it correctly. So what I did was loosen up the screws for the housing and it fit right in. I greatly appreciate for everyone's help. Thanks.
