Headlight Harness Retainer Failed.. WTF?
I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this. I went out to install the new PIAA headlights on my Ram 3500 today and on both headlights, after pulling the 'retention' clip back and the plug away from the bulb, I ended up with several pieces of plastic in the plug. I've determined that this is the retainer to prevent the plug from separating from the bulb.
Is this a common problem?
I now have to wait until the middle of next week for the shop to bring the part in and get it installed. Can I safely run the headlights without the retainer clip? I cannot for the life of me figure out how to augment the plug with zip ties, or anything other than glue to help them stay on.

Oh ok, i was thinking the grey round ring that locks the bulb in place. So you are talking about the actual electrical connector to the bulbs itself? If so LMK and I can get you some replacement part numbers or you can buy new sockets off ebay. I bought some a while back that was ceramic on the inside to resist heat
