Headlamp socket clip workaround

[aerospacecase]

Passing along a workaround for the very common problem of clips on headlamp sockets breaking off. A clip on the other lamp socket also broke off but the remaining one is working. If I have to change bulbs again, that one may also break off and I might have to make another repair.

Yeah I see it now. That is a problem as vehicles get older, all the clips get brittle. Sometimes it helps to heat them mildly. Nice use of an everyday object to solve this.

^ I'm guessing you had your browser logged into Dropbox to make that happen, I still can't see it embedded except in my post, not on 3 different browsers, 2 different systems.
