Headlamp help!

I just recently purchased some new headlamps for my 99 jeep Cherokee xj but they are smaller then the originals. Wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to get them to hold in the original housings. Any help will be appreciated. Pictures are welcome.

New 5x7 sealed housings are only $40. That doesn't seem like much money to get it done right without hassles. If the deal on the 4x6 housings is that sweet, then sell them again and get the right parts.
