Headlight Tab Repair Kit

Hi. Wonder if BMW makes a headlight tab repair kit for 2012 F25, as they do for other models? The headlights are attached by two plastic tabs at the top of the headlight on these cars and other German makes. I see tab repair kits for other models sold. Has anyone been able to do this sort of repair with a kit like sold here: https://www.ecstuning.com/Search/Headlight_Tab_Repair/2 or otherwise? Thanks!

I did it for my E60 with an aluminium bilit. Cut to size and drill both ends then screw in to hold the headlight in place
