WTB: Headlight Retainer Rings

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a couple of OEM headlight retainer rings. Aftermarket ones won't work.

They don't have to be NOS, but would like them to be in very good condition, with all 3 tabs unbroken. I don't know that they are left and right specific, but if they are, looking for both. Please let me know what you have. Thanks

Re: WTB: Headlight Retainer Rings

I'll look when I get home from work. I thought I had one or two but I don't remember if I still have them or not.
