Broken XJ900 headlight bezel?

Took the headlight out of my '83 XJ900 to see what was back there, and I think I found a problem. It appears the only thing holding the headlight in place are the two spring loaded adjustment screws. This allows the headlight to bounce around.

It looks like there is some sort of 3rd mounting tab on the top of the headlight that is possibly supposed to latch it to some sort of corresponding tab on the bezel. But it appears the bezel side is broken off.

What is it supposed to look like?

 

You are right there is a recess in my 1991 900f fairing that tab fits into which stops it bouncing around. The screws and springs then allow for adjustment for headlamp aim.

 

Thanks @Franz. The tab that hooks into the fairing is ok. The part I am referring to is the one circled here. It looks like this the remnants of a tab spot welded in place, and the other side is completely missing. Can you get a photo of what the bracket is supposed to look like? Maybe I can manufacture something and rivet it in place.

 

@co.dirtbiker you have a retaining spring missing.

 

There is no spring retaining bracket on the other side.



Perhaps Chacal has one in stock?

 

Yep. Looks like my bracket that the spring pushes the headlight into is broken/missing. Areas circled in red (and the spring) are missing on mine and the part circled in green is still there but broken.



Actually, found one on eBay that looks pretty good only costing an arm without the leg and includes the headlight. Guess it will be good to have a spare headlight too. Talked to seller and confirmed it's in good shape, and I can see the spring in their photos, so pulled the trigger. I have too much else to get done to sit there messing with trying to fabricate something, even though it would probably be a free fix. Maybe when I have more time I can try to rig something up.
