So… I'm not the most mechanically inclined guy and did something stupid to my wife's car…

One of her headlight bulbs went out. So, I decided to replace it. I didn't realize how simple it was to replace the bulb. I unscrewed the metal clip (looks like a paper clip) that holds the bulb in place. I guess it didn't need to be unscrewed. Between the two of us… we lost the metal clip.

Is there someplace to order the tiny part online without having to buy a whole headlight assembly.

I don't have a pic right now… But, can try to take one of the clip on the other headlight if I need to.

 

I don't think it can buy just the clip. I'd suggest looking for a used headlight assembly from eBay or a auto salvage yard.

 

Sweep the garage floor and look or use a magnet and try to locate. Or try a junk yard like pull apart or a yard that allows you to look for parts yourself.
