Clock Light Issues

I have noticed that after I changed my two clock light bulbs with the OEM ones from the dealer they only worked about a couple weeks and now there are no lights coming on. So I take the clock out again to find out there are no bulbs in it, they must have fell off of the clock. Before I re-installed the clock back into the car after inserting the light bulbs I shook it and made sure they were not loose and fully secure. So I don't get why they would have fallen out. This is very annoying. What am I doing wrong here? Thanks.

Yes I don't know that I could have twisted them anymore. How do these screws work exactly because it seems a bit different in that i'm not sure if it needs to be twisted as tight as possible or if it needs to be in a certain position that will keep it in place. As I said they do stay put for a couple weeks until they fall.

I actually did that. But they still keep coming out of place and don't stay lit. The tape just keeps them from falling out of the clock.
