Thanks, like I said I did get it back together. hopefully it will stay. A non-litronic headlight assembly is a lot cheaper than a new litronic. I just want it to work. I don't think the contacts are the problem. The plug assembly into which the assembly contects into was slightly cracked and out of alignment, so I was able to jimmy it in from behind going through the wheel well. I am just not sure the assembly is clicking in correctly as it uses pressure from the leverage rod to keep the assembly in place. I may have damaged something after shoving it in so many times. Right now is has been holding for 2 days.
