    Whoever last put in the headlight for my car must have forced it in as i can see it is not set in properly because of the headlamp popping out the side slightly. I am trying to lift up the white clip, which works fine for the other side, but it wont lift. I do not want to snap it, so i am not sure what to do. Has anyone had this problem? If so, please help me out.

    Have you done this without it snapping? It seems to be in real tight, and i hope that little plastic piece wont snap.

    yea, i work in a huge body shop and i tear down tons of cars everyday and i've never broke one, and i've had A LOT stick like that, especially the ones with mad front end damage. a few good tugs with pliers wont hurt, and if it does i would imagine there not very much
