Went to change my headlight bulbs and it seems that the previous owner was retarded and broke the 3 MOUNT TABS that the headlight turns tight into. It looks to screw off so Im wondering if anyone knows what Im looking at to get a new one

if its the whitish piece you are talking about that the bulb locks into, then it is only serviced with a headlamp assembly. you could try to dismantle one rom a boneyard i guess.

Are you referring to the black ring that screws into the back of the socket? I may have some old headlights that might have the black rings on them. How many do you need?

or you can carefully remove one from a boneyard and superglue it onto your housing. used headlights are pretty cheap though on ebay.
