Hi - I'm about to get MOT'd on a 55-plate C220 CDI Coupe Sport Edition - but the headlight on the drivers side is shaking. Mechanic says the grey plastic bit that stretches from headlight to engine frame is broken and needs replacing - as this is the main component/part in keeping headlight secure.

I phoned MB but parts dept. there are clueless. Do I need a new headlight? Or can the grey plastic part be replaced at all? Headlight part no is A2038203461 but don't want to fork out £200 as headlight works fine.

Your help is required as car will fail MOT in its current state.

Thanks

Also the modern adhesives used in the motor body shop will also fix it
