light bulb cover?
 

We changed the main headlight lightbulbs today (standard lightbulbs) and for the most part, were quite successful. However, the one issue we did have was on the passenger side....we managed to break off the tiny piece on top of the plastic light bulb cover that snaps on/off over the light bulb and looks like an octagonal plastic cap (under the hood), and it no longer is fitting securely. I cannot seem to find this piece online at all. Can you purchase just this piece? I don't need a whole headlight! Does anyone know the part #?

So do you mean that since that piece broke.. the passenger side bulb is not securely snug in its proper place? I'm having troube trying to determine which plastic piece you're talking about.

The light bulb is in place. The piece I'm talking about is a black plastic piece that has to be pulled off as the first step in getting to the light bulb. So, if you were change the high beam light bulb, after opening the hood, there is a black plastic piece that looks that the instruction manual tells you pry off with the screwdriver to access the lightbulb (though there are no actual screws). Did fine on one, slightly broke the other and it only attaches now at the bottom of the piece. My guess is that helps seal out moisture from getting into the headlight? I'm really not sure though.

What you need is the bracket which is no #10 in this picture:

It costs about 1,50 us, and the part number is 63126906780

Hope you get it sorted.:)
