Failed to Meet Expectations

Based on my observations, the Automotive headlight retainer failed to secure the headlight housing adequately. Although the price point is attractive, the poor quality of this retainer made my car headlights appear wonky and uneven. I was quite disappointed as I expected a more reliable accessory that would keep my headlights in place.

Pros
  • Pros - Affordable
Cons
  • Cons - Failed to secure headlight housing properly.

I don't even have to give it a star. This .

I shouldn't even give it one star. These things are garbage. They are made of very malleable metal. The originals are made of hardened steel. I reused the originals. It remains to remove most of the rust from them. I just got through Dorman. Not even worth the return shipping cost. Pure garbage!

Pros
  • Direct Replacement - This headlamp bracket is the same size and function as the factory part for the years, makes and models listed
Cons
  • Some minor issues

They are so fragile and cheap that they bend.

They are so fragile and cheap that if you try to insert them into the groove provided they will bend immediately. I compared them to the original Ford clips that I had removed and the difference was very clear. These clips are designed to fit snugly, otherwise they wouldn't do the job they were designed for. Therefore, they have to be pushed into place with a certain amount of force. These clips flex at the slightest pressure.

Pros
  • Heavy Duty Construction - This part is made of high quality materials for reliable performance and long life.
Cons
  • High price.
