Headlamp bulb retainers; Junkyard bound

I wonder how many differant bulb retainers they made for a type 9004 bulb. Most retainers I have ever seen have three tabs. Today I looked at some on a nissan that only had two tabs 180 degrees apart. The car had been wrecked and someone patched it up and redid the headlamps. Well the bulbs were falling out of the housing because the they tried to use three tang retainers on a housing that only had two and the retainers do not work. Went to autozone thinking surely they would carry such animals but no. Tried to find some on the internet but no. As much as I hate it, it appears I have to go to the junkyard just for a couple of stupid retainers. Give me sealed beams anyday. :banghead
