I repaired one a few years ago and it's still solid.  It was the top, inner 
tab.  I used a piece of sheet aluminum an inch wide and about 3 inches long, 
bent as needed.  I fastened it to the headlight assembly with 2 pop rivets, 
one into the stump of the old tab and the other farther forward, into the 
headlight housing, about 3/8 of an inch from the front end of the plastic 
housing.  I added some adhesive between the new tab and the headlight 
housing before attaching.  Drill a hole on the other end for the screw to go 
through, pop on a speednut, and you're done.
