Default Headlight Help

I am in need of some assistance. I have a broken retaining clip that holds the high beam bulb in place. Dealer did some research and found I will need to purchase the whole headlight assembly....$534. I was wondering if any member might have an extra assembly that had been damaged and replaced. I checked a couple of bone yards with no luck. Bulb is semi secure for now but don't know how long. THANKS

Maybe a little silicone sealant to hold it in place

Its just a wire clip that holds the bulb in place. I would remove one of the others for a pattern and make a new one, but they are a fiddle to work on unless you remove the unit from the car. Also there plenty of complete units on ebay UK going cheap.
good luck
