ah righto, i did see your post but didnt take notice that yours is an 03.

well thats very interesting indeed. im not sure what these clips look like, ive had a look under the bonnet but there doesnt appear to be anything clip looking.

ill try the only local dealer (who have a solid reputation for being absolute pr|cks) and see what they have to say.

ps. does anyone have a link to, or can provide, pictures of the headlight clips?

thanks for your help all.
