Missing headlight bulb clip

  Top of Page

Almost embarrassing to ask this question.... My driver side headlight bulb retaining clip is missing (Assume lost by a service technician some time ago). Subaru (bless'em) will sell me a complete headlight assembly, but can't supply a clip on its own. Such a pathetically small bit, that cannot be easily purchased is causing me some grief. Out of position bulb and causes very low light from headlight. Any ideas on what/how to purchase as a replacement?

Let me guess gen4?

they are very common to brake in that generation, there's a few ways around it but your looking at a good $600 for a new one and hard to find on ebay

Thx Hamish,
Mine is the 04 model, purchased in late 03.
I will probably live with one headlight rather than pay $600 for a new headlight assy. Just because I couldn't stand the waste.
I will keep an eye on ebay for Subaru wreck parts, but even a whole headlight assy will be difficult to find.
I would actually like access to a smashed headlight to see if I can get hold of just the clip.
