Default Headlamp keeps popping out

Every now and again I'll hit a bump and when I park the car I notice the headlamp glass is popping out at the top and it wouldn't really bother me but I'm afraid of water getting in there. What needs to be changed.

Is it the glass or the whole unit?

If it's just the glass you could try sticking it back with some silicone.

you need to reseal it. probably with clear automotve rtv silicone sealant. in the meantime you need to get some shipping tape on it before the glass falls off and breaks.
