The metal locking clip behind the headlight assembly is lost somehow. I have been searching around a couple vw parts website and no luck. Could anyone who ordered it before help me out?

THanks

Can anyone say Warranty..... let VW figure it out.. just tell them that the headlight has never been touched... (even if it has....) "shhhh..." is the secret word used when talking with anyone from VW service...

Yes, that's what I am trying to do if I couldn't find a part # and order it myself.
Oh btw, nice TDi bug, I am kinda naive on NBs and didn't know they come with DSG option.
Guess I need to pay a visit to the dealership cuz GF is bugging me big time about "screwing" with her car

Update:

Stopped by the dealership parts department and asked about this clip. To no surprise, the clip was not listed as a replacement parts, which means I have to spend $400 for a new headlamp assembly in order to get there metal clip to seal my headlamps from water and dust going in to mess the electrical system of the bug.

Cliff Note: Don't ever lose that metal clip behind 06-07 Headlamp assembly.
