Did you know before purchasing them that they were broke? Shouldnt be too hard to make new tabs, based on your new grill i see you have some skill. Just get a peice of plastic, drill a hole, and melt them on....I dunno, but have fun!

read a few posts above yours, ECS tuning sells the tab repair kit for like 12 bucks or something like that.. no need to go all McGuyver on the headlights
