... install these fricken H7 bulbs in my MACH headlight assemblies.
H7 bulb connector
![[Image: H71.jpg]](http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d84/ztwsquared/H71.jpg)
This is what the mounting point looks like (shouldn't there be a wire clip attached to one of these screws?)

This is bulb connector with metal clip attached

And this is the metal clip removed from the bulb connector.

Yeah no problem with the low beams (and yes D2S) ... H7s are indeed high beams and buried to one side in the housing - my hand doesn't even fit down there.

Do you have the Ford Racing Hids? Or the Svt Hids? I know there shouldn't be a diiference, but they could have changed the bulb holder to accommodate the DRL function maybe? I know mine has a wire clip with a plastic bulb socket that are a huge pain to try and change

Why not grab just some wire and wrap it around the clip to each screw, then use a small ratchet with and extension and a screw driver bit to tighten?
