Loose projector in facelift headlights

Any idea how to fix this? The projector wiggles around very easily inside the housing. Video for reference:

Just following up up on this in case someone else has the same problem. I found this video on youtube, and you can see a raised pin on top of the projector towards the front, someone in the comments recommended pushing it down with a screwdriver. I was able to reach my hand in and push it down, and the projector doesn't wobble around anymore!

there is already a pin inside there, it just pops up sometimes so you need to reach in and push it down
