Headlight Locking Piece
 
Alright well this is a long shot... but on the back of your headlights where the low beam enters, there is a white piece that locks the low beam bulb in place.... Long story short my bulb fell out one night and I put it back in. I just opened my hood and I see that their was light from the low beam shining at the motor. Well I took out the bulb and I realize that the bulb melted the bottom of that white piece that locks it.... So my question is, is that white piece replaceable?

Alright guys, this is what I have to work with. As you can see I can still lock my light, the problem is the light escaping through the huge gaping hole. I need a way to prevent this way. Go at it engineer's. @thesleeper recommended a washer, which might work if I can find a plastic one. Any other ideas.

I used it on my supercharged grand prix. I broke a plastic nipple off one of the vacuum lines and it held for 3 months till I found another replacement.
