Headlight Washer, too much work for something I never use
Does anyone have drawings that show the washer in detail? I've got the headlight out. It looks to me like there was something that held the washer back, but not sure how. It was way too hard to get the headlight out, or I would pull the other one to compare.

There is a V shape on the underside of the lamp unit the washer fits/slides into, the 2 tabs then click in place, you need to have the lamp half in, half out, to refit the washer, you have to line it up well so it snaps into place otherwise it will easily come out again.
Once you have managed to clip the washer in you can refit the lamp.

It's the spring that I don't see or have. My guess is that someone before me put it back together without the spring and rigged it to stay. Pictures would be great! Thanks.

I'm hoping to avoid that. I've got everything but the spring. If I can't get just the spring, then I should be able to come up with something that can do the same thing.

I forgot to sort a pic, my bad.... done it now
The big ring is the V shape the 2 smaller rings are where the washer clips behind to hold it in place.
The spring to return the washer is internal and quite strong, you should be able to pull the washer out and feel the strength of the spring, if there is no resistance, then the washer is faulty
