So easy does it or the housing is brittle and breaks easy. So with my luck I will have to buy a whole new headlamp assembly because of a broken housing.

Great DIY by abakja1 I borrowed his pic to so the clip and housing that broke off.

Sorry for the bump from the dead, but I did the swap today and I broke the tab on the bulb mount. Did any of you guys with broken tabs change the mount, if so part number, price, etc? If not how's it holding up and how long has it been that way?
