returnning LED headlights
Well I'm giving up on the LED's I just got the return label so back they go. As I am unable to find a stock Clip Need two to try to modify I do not want to mess up my originals. I will have to wait till someone comes out with a complete kit and step be step instruction. I do not have the tools time or skill for R&D to engineer the required parts to do this job. Another day!!! jtpollock

Are you saying you need some parts off stock RS headlights to try and mod? Which ones? I'm sure there are a set or two of stock RS lights laying around my shop. Let me know if I can help.

The parts would half to be from 2012 rs stock retaining Clip that you put on the back of the stock H7 headlight it has a square hole in the center and as you twist to the right to lock the blub in place it also has some spring tension ( the part only comes as a part of a complete Headlight bucket) jtpollock

Hi jtpollock,
Re: I'm giving up on the LED's
I agree with your decision. I have been doing some looking for LED's for my '08 headlights.
So far no one will tell me without a doubt that 'their' LED's will fit my '08 as a Plug & Play change-out.
One problem, since these models are no longer being produced, there is no real incentive for the supply companies to develop products for them.
Just my $0.02 on this issue,

Are these the clips you need? Pretty sure these are out of a 12' RS. They had HID bulbs in them so they have been notched.
