Whats this piece called?

Whats the piece that holds the headlight in? Its the gray ring that goes around the headlight and has holes for screws...mine fell down the hole under the air filter box and I cant even see or get it. Whats the part called so I can replace it? Any ideas for temporary ways to hold the headlight in?

Is it plastic? Metal? Pics? I have a whole bunch of headlight parts from my retrofit.

You can take your air box out by removing the bumper, then you might be able to get the piece

its a round gray plastic piece with holes in it for screws to hold in the headlight...how do you take the bumper off? This whole thing is frustrating...and i noticed theres oil all over the pan under the car while i was under there...

Hmm... I have gone through 3 sets of headlights and I don't remember a plastic round grey piece with holes in it. I know of the greyish metal round piece with holes in it for screws that goes behind the round rubber weather seal.

to take the bumper off you have to remove the two screws on each side inside the fender well on the front portion. Then remove the turn signals with a phillips head screwdriver, and unplug them from the lights. then you can see 2 bolts on each side behind where the turn signals were, just unscrew them and then its kinda hard to pull out but be patient and use a friend. then you can see the air box on the right corner, just remove it there should be some screws or bolts holding it in... then you should be able to get your piece.
