Default Headlight issue

So does anyone know where I can get a new retaining clip for my passenger side headlight? I guess I bent mine when I was putting a new bulb in, now my beam pattern is wayyyyyy off. Everywhere I have searched online is basically showing that I would have to buy a brand new headlight for that and I am not spending a few hundred dollars for a metal wire.

Any ideas?

Unless you 'broke' it...why can't you just bend the retaining clip back into its original shape again? I'm surprised that your beam pattern is 'wayyyyy off' anyway, simply as a result of the retaining clip being mis-shaped, but I suppose it is possible . If your concern is that you can't bend it back 'just like it should be'...remove the retaining clip from your *other* headlamp, and then use *that* one as a template to re-shape the bent one.

Oh...or PM me and I'd be happy to mail you one for $15 .
