If you have had any body work done on that side recently, make sure there is nothing inside that is preventing the headlight from going all the way in. I had some bodywork done a few years ago and there was a metal tab coming out from the fender that was just a touch off and the headlight wouldnt go all the way in. Other than that, make sure all the tabs are going into their respective slots on the headlight tray. I also find it useful to use a 1/4 inch drive deep six point socket (it's the smallest one in my Harbor Freight metric set) with an extension and a ratchet, rather than the tool that comes in the tool roll with the car.
