well thing is in order to fix them u need the broken part of the tab that came off so u can puzzle it back together

if u dont have that u need a miracle worker

personally if more than 1 tab is broke i wouldnt by it unless the tab pieces are included

missing tabs = thief/ an accident would crack the light not just break the tabs. and YOU CANT break the tabs by unbolting them wrong. but you CAN break the tabs off, if you used a pry bar to take out the lights. thief!

I have to sneeze ....A$$Hole!!! ...did i say that?
IGNORANCE IS BLISS..."killerlexus"

maybe ur ******* has never seen i car that got a not so hard hit on the lower bumber area ...it will break tabs & not damage headlight

or maybe a car with a very hard hit on the left side that broke tabs to the right side headlight or viceversa

if u open ur hood numb**** u'll see the front radiator support is all fiberglass as opposed to being metal like most cars ...that means if u get into an accident 9 outa 10 lots of things will get broke uncluding weak plastic tabs

also u are a fvkkn liar if u say u have been around body shops all ur life & never seen a car with broken tabs & no damage to the light.
i used to work in a bodyshop & have seen it on all sorts of cars ....maybe u just been around bodyshops like u said & u never have actually fixed anything ....get a dam job!!! & stop being around bodyshops they have work to do

answer this Einstein?.. if the headlights are stolen how do u get the broken tab to re-attached it? like mines have ...U R SOFA_KING DUMB

one more Einstein ....if only one tab is broke & other 2 are intact how the fvkk did a thief pull that off?

soooo this is how its done huh ...and u know this is true, how? experience hmmmm

if all 3 tabs are broken I would probly suspect foul play but if one or 2 tabs are intact...
I would have to ask myself the same question I asked Albert Einstein aka killerlexus in my last post...
how the fvkk do u rip out a headlight but somehow take off bumper & fender to keep a tab or 2 intact?

missing tabs = thief <----that is not the theory of relativity that is ur theory of stupidity

please killerlexus just L.I.G. & save urself from further embarrasment
read my quote in my sig & learn something if u can comprehend it

paperchaser does bring up a valid point. there are 3 tabs if someone were to pry the headlight out all three would be broken.
