    Looks like the CBI uses part of the factory bumper, which is also the part where the bumper connects to the retainers. If you do break them you can epoxy them as they wont see to much force with the CBI bumper. I suspect the way I pulled the bumper out and the temperature caused mine to break.

    Sweet bumper btw!

    Not from my end, no. The configuration I send them is really all I can do. There’s no real benefit to having them on with your headlights. I could always leave them not wired up, and you or anyone else can wire them up as you please.

    It was more a general question on if you could wire them up like that. I know you don't do that as you do all the fun stuff like bake and paint haha

    What clips are breaking? I will be installing my second set in the winter and would like to have them on hand just in case.
    Thanks
