The subject pretty well sums it up: I was driving late yesterday evening and heard a fairly loud "thump" along the driver's side front. Initially I thought nothing of it, and because I was in a hurry I didn't stop right away. Then, later in the evening noticed my left turn signal was blinking like twice as fast as it should be.

Turns out, the entire driver's side parking light assembly is GONE!! (except for a little bit of plastic still held on by the retaining screw...) I probably had the thing loosened while I was installing my Cibie Euro lights, and I must not have gotten the two tabs seated correctly under the flanges.

I guess I have a few questions, including "what do I do now?", "What can I do to make sure the next one doesn't fly off also," is there a chance that my old assembly is still intact, 12 hours after smashing onto I-78 at speed, does anyone have a spare/used one from a parts car, how much for a "new" one (shudder)?? Any help greatly appreciated.
