Main Beam Bulb clip on 197 HELP !!

[Des-fae-Ayr]

Hi Guys,

Just went to remove my o/s main beam bulb and before I got a good look at it the wee wire clip pinged off and I have no idea how to get it back on.

I'm sure its probably simple but standing there in fading light, peeing rain and gale force winds I'm struggling to figure it out n my own.

I'm away to find a head torch and hopefully someone will be able to advise me by the time I get back.

Thanks

If is anything like the dipped beam bulb, the clip bends outwards at the bottom and the ends of the clip fit into 2 holes at the bottom of the bulb holder. The clip then swings upwards to a retaining clip at the top of the bulb holder.

Hope this makes sense.

Ok I will go try again when the rain goes off,

Thanks
