WTB Retaining clip
« on: January 18, 2016, 11:50:04 AM »
I located one at the Parts Haus in Calif.

I am looking for the round retaining clip that holds the halogen light bulb into the socket on my 1985 K100RT.

The BMW part number is 63 12 1 459 470.

and is item number 9 on the BMW parts fiche.

Any help would be appreciated.

Don that part No seems to be common to all the 75,100 & 1100 I didn't check all the models just enough to  make it seem likely. I would also suspect that it is used on cars with Bosch H4 headlights that should make your hunt easier. I checked a couple of 100's a couple 75's & a couple 1100's.

That retaining clip is standard on most any European car using H4 halogen bulbs.  You can get one from a wreckers.
