Headlight Connector
The piece of plastic that slides onto the headlight is loose and won't keep ahold of it, so I can plug it in tight and let it go and it just kinda slides off and I have an out headlight.
Any ideas?

Re: Headlight Connector
it's not the plastic that holds it it's the metal clip inside,make sure the bulb prongs slide into the brassy clip too,( look close a small flat screwdriver type object would fit in, to push a small wedge piece of the clip over to,this allows the whole metal clip out, of the rest of the plastic clip

Re: Headlight Connector
You can buy a new connector at any auto parts store.
