Replacing a broken retainer clip in the headlights
Hi, I accidentally broke the retainer clip on the driver side that's holding the headlight bulb while replacing the bulb. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement? I called te dealer and they said I would have to order a whole new driver side headlight for 1200

they probably don't make replacements for it that are readily available for sale.
Maybe remove your headlight, dissasemble it and fabricate your own clip. You can black out your headlights to while you're at it.

You can't buy that individual part from a dealership. Your only option is if you find one on a wrecked car in a salvage yard. But it's doubtful that they'd take it off if an intact light to sell you, you'd have to find one with a damaged light with the clip intact. Good luck.

My bad, I thought you were talking about the white plastic clip on top. Good luck with getting your lights worked on.
