High beam bulb retainer

Post by smwalker »

Couple of the boys on the FB page mentioned they were missing the retaining ring for the high beam headlight. Took mine off my 14 and did a search. Seems this is another part we share with BMW's and Audi's. Found it on ebay by searching :

" H7 HID Lamp Bulbs Retainer "

There is a split type one that looks similar but I think the solid ones are close to ours.

Ebay Listing of of one example

Ebay Listing - Lower price

Seems a model that comes up alot in the searches of the ones that match is "VW Sagitar" - what ever that is.

Hi Steve, I'm trying to install some LED H7 high beams and of course our retainer clips dont work because the LED wont fit thru our oem retainer. I've seen the adapter rings on Amazon but how do know which one would work with any one particular LED? The seller on Amazon where I bought the lights dont really answer questions. Any of you guys had this issue with the H7 LEDs ?
Thanks
