Broke 2/3 brackets on both headlights when I was smoking them.

What's the easiest way of securing them? Still have the two upper brackets, they are snapped, i am planning on gripper-ing them together, and the whole bastard unit if I have to. I never planned on reattaching the lower brackets (one's under the brow) sheerly because I couldn't be arsed if I ever need to take the headlights out again as they are such a bitch to get to, and ideally need the whole bumper of etc.

Anyway, suggestions? Not replacement though. My only worry is alignment when it comes to MOT, but that is bulb alignment is it not? Not the unit, I mean, that normally can't be moved anyway, so it can't be right? As long as I make sure it stays in exactly as it was it should be fine correct?
