    I am working with Metro Pro. I have the two containers with no background color, allowing my background image to show. I then made the widgets white, to make reading easier.... I want to change the right header widget area's background to black. I have tried everything including: !important.

    I cannot get rid of the 10 pixel white border around the search box in the header.

    Any suggestions?
