Hi guys, was swapping out my headlight switch today and broke the white clip the holds the electrical connection in place. I have a local BMW parts place, but what would this piece even be called?

Unfortunately I have no headlights or indicators at the moment as the plug won't stay in :(

[ref]jock156[/ref]’s breaker still has that plug in it.
Contact him quick.
[ref]usel[/ref] is going there tomorrow and he can chop the plug off with a length of the loom, giving you various repair options
 
Cable tie around the light module will also work and save waiting for postage

Remove the air vent for better access as it's a bit tight with the plug connected.
 
FYI, the combined cover and white lock piece is separate to the plug so can be slid off and replaced easily.
 
Cheers guys, part arrived and got it fixed in no time. Was simple enough just to slide off the white locking piece and transfer it onto the old one :thumbsup:
