       Yes, they are replaceable....BUT....you cannot purchase them 
separately.  You must purchase the complete adjuster at some ridiculous 
price.  There are three different adjusters/lamp holders in there.  Check the 
prices of all three and you will find one style is cheaper than the others.  
ALL THREE have the same end piece you need.  To remove and install that 
little PITA piece use heat from a hair dryer or heat gun to warm it up.  Then 
it will do what you want without self-destruction.  You can sometimes find 
them in junk yards but again use heat to remove as they will be brittle from 
age.  Good luck.  BTDT !  I now keep a supply of new ones from VW in stock 
for my customers.
