[s-cars] Anyone know if the headlight reflector mounting clips can be ordered?

I finally got around to putting in the HIR bulbs I bought last year, and 
while disassembling the lens housing to clean and install a relayed 
wiring harness, had four of the reflector mounting clips (the ones that 
are adjustable to aim the headlamps) break off where they attach to the 
reflector.

These clips are *really* brittle.  Two broke off during disassembly and 
two broke off during reassembly.

After much cursing and a quick look at etka (which doesn't appear to 
show the correct part), I've decided to turn to the collective wisdom of 
the list for help.

Here's a link to a photo of a good clip, and a broken clip:

Has anyone run into this problem before and come up with a successful 
solution?  Can these clips be ordered separately from somewhere?  Or am 
I stuck trying to glue these things back together and hope they hold?

Any help appreciated!
