Awaiting a new arrival...
Can you elaborate more on what they did to "adjust the clip"? Seems to me that it is pretty rigid plastic, so without heating it up, it seems strange that there was an adjustment. And I have the lenses already...

theyehat up one the clips and bend it ....stretch it out a little bit ....the big clip not the two small ones at the front....i guess tehy are going to adjust their molding machines after i told them all of their lenses dont fit...they want to see the original so they can be exact so if anyone living close to thier shop you might want to pass by and show the oem lens

JKD: I believe TIMMY has a MB light FAQ webpage. It should be on his profile. So if you find it, it will answer all your inquiries regarding bulbs and other lighting questions.
