The cool thing is, if you buy a headlight with broken tabs honda sells kits that screw into the headlight to replace the broken tab. Look at your headlight and beside each tab there should be 2 screw holes where the new tab mounts.

I think allot of the headlights come from wrecked cars, hence the broken tabs.

i bought a set with broken tabs off ebay, a little modification and it fits perfectly and flush. I agree that they are from broken tabs....but, they also seem that they can be easily broken
