Replaced bulb in factory fog/driving lamp but...

I replaced the bulb in my 1995 SE passenger fog/driving light. It was pretty quick but I have two issues. I think the reflector clip that holds the piece covering the screw was broken and lost it driving on the road and the aim of my fog lamp is off as compared the drivers side. I know there are two pins which gave me a helluva time trying to set those in while trying to screw in the "one" bolt/screw holding this thing in. Does anyone have a good method of setting this light and aligning it so that it aims properly. I searched the forum and could not find anything on this issue. I ordered a replacement light off of EBay as I could not find the little reflector that covers the screw. Any help would be appreciated.

Based on the relative obscurity of this piece, you might have some luck in a local salvage yard.

Also, creating a WTB thread in the Classifieds might yield you some positive results as well.

I found a light on EBay but rather than install it I am trying to get my passenger fog lamp to work correctly. I found a guy in my town who is willing to help out.

For some strange reason, the passenger fog light bulbs on both of my Maximas have a short life. Neither are working today. For the I30, I never had a problem.
