You managed to break off ALL of the mounting tabs?

No. Just replace it.

Ummmm.....no.

Corner lights are either around $20 on line. Or $20 bucks for a used oem set on craigslist. Dont be a cheap *** trying to fix broke inexpensive things or doing a ridiculous fix like above.

If you considera $75 part expensive, you might be in the wrong habit...

Also, you could pull ANY corner from a junkyard that doesn't have broken tabs, remove the back side, and insert your "mad tyte JDM y0" internals and lens on the junkyard back.

Yes, this is where you put it in an oven to loosen the glue, pull it apart, get some Nissan headlight sealant, and reassemble it.
