I was replacing the retainer/adjustment springs on my headlights when the flap bracket snapped :(.
 So here's the question: can I get by with an adhesive, or should I suck it up and replace it? Either way I'll be trying to fit a bolt through that hole to further secure it. Edited by Borteep |

Probably should replace it. I don't have any red headlight doors, but Watts might. AKA Dr. Fiero. Adhesive won't really work, as there is tremendous pressure created at highway speeds that can actually open the headlight doors just from the air forcing up on them.

Not sure if the color would match (heck, might only have a silver one or something!), but I'm sure I've got one around here.
