Weak Headlight Output

I have a 95 Civic sedan. The drivers side headlight is not as bright as the passenger side. I have replaced both bulbs with news ones.
I cant' figure out why they are different. They are factory headlights.

I did have a fender bender on that side. Could that effect the output?

Is there anything inside the headlight assembly that could have shaken loose?

Any help would be great.

Re: Weak Headlight Output

Check for battery voltage at the light socket. If you're getting battery voltage then it's a bad ground- which is under/behind the headlight.
