Loose LED arrays

We replaced the tungsten-filament bulbs in our interior ceiling lights with 9-LED warm white arrays obtained at Jackson Center. We are pleased with the amount of light and the color provided by the LED's. However, three (of the fifteen) seem to come loose as we travel. After each trip, I must open each fixture and reinsert the two pins into the socket. Any suggestions for making them stick?

Stop traveling....


Sorry, but I couldn't resist. Wish I had an answer to this question. I have a couple of LEDs that also come loose when traveling. I will tract this thread to hear the solution.

Would it be possible to slightly spread the pins so that they fit tighter?
