    But if its the one I'm thinking of and you don't have it, do not close up the lights without it. I tried and the light kept moving like crazy and I had to take it apart again, huge pain in the ass.

    Yet another roadblock... -.- how do you re-install the bulb holders, i've already lost one nut inside the projector twice, got it back the 1st time and this time i havent seen it... ._.

    edit: found it.

    Is this all i need for the back? i've come to the conclusion that you dont need the bulb holders or the clip for that matter.

    +1 to you Ryan for the sharpie idea. Brilliant

    Yeah I mounted mine without the lens covers on that way if you have to adjust anything it's still easy to do.

    I just hooked up the harness and removed my lights stuck the retros in place and turned them on. I'm sure you've read about the one "hell" screw that's in close to the fender wheel. That was the hardest part and honestly I didn't even put it back and the lights don't move at all.
