Headlight Internals loose on CLK
Having a little issue with the left CLK headlight. I hit a piece of plasterboard whilst driving the other day (flew off the back of a truck on the highway) now my left light seems to juggle about when I drive. I've recorded a quick video of the issue as Ive got my hand inside the back of the light and lightly moving the inside of the light around.
Does this piece just clip back? Or do I have to replace the whole headlight?

There is a plastic pivot mechanism inside. It might have just popped out of place, or it may have broken. If it's broken, then you are best to just replace the headlight. If it's popped out of place, you may be able to snap it back in, but that is MUCH easier with the headlight removed from the car.
