Buy the strongest aluminium back high temp tape at home depot (its the big roll, around $20). Bend the metal flap up, use the tape and cover the opening, then bend that metal flap back to where it was. I used a flashlight thru the projector to test the cut-off and make sure no lights were leaking before re-installing the headlight.

hey thanks guy lots of info for sure.

So the objective is to just cover that little hole completely right??
Does the little flap need to be there or can it be removed completely?
I suppose it could just stay and cover the hole right..?

I just folded the flap down to cover the hole, way easy when the headlights are taken apart.

so just fold it????? it won't mess nothin up?

mosthated, you can't bend the flap down or up with the 2012 model like the previous years could. I remember reading posts where other users confirmed this for their 2012 and 2013 Legacys. You're going to have to plug it.
