Broke headlamp clips.

So I broke the headlamp retaining clip on the passenger side. What can I do? Before I go out and buy a whole new headlamp assembly, are there any other solutions? Does anyone have or know where I can buy just the retaining clip?

And just wondering, since HID kits cost about as much as a new headlamp, would I need the clips for an HID kit? I might try installing an HID kit if I don't need that clip.

With most HID kits on the market now - most are plug n play therefore you would still need the clips. That sucks you broke them, it's pretty stupid how the set-up is. It's pretty ridiculous that they even make it harder to change headlight bulbs. Even the air filter, you have to take some things off in order to get to it. Stupid.
