Best quality headlight retainer ring?
Went out to change the headlight on the truck today and ofcourse one of the tabs on the retaining ring broke off. Thought about trying to jb weld the tab back on but would just rather replace it at this point. Who makes the best quality rings? And where is the best place to get them. I really don't want to replace it with junk and have to replace it again in a couple years.

What he said. There are two types in case you have to have a match. One the spring goes through the hole as pictured above, the other just has a gap on its back for one.
