my mota has sailed through loads of MOT's with broken clips on the various headlights its had in at the times.
my current light at the passenger side only has one clip holding it inplace ( the one behind the grill ) & it holds perfectly well, but my blackeye headlights i put on as an early mod used to be a tad loose with the same fitting setup until i tightened the 2 torx screws holding that securing plate to the headlight unit when the headlight was inplace & clipped up as much as it could be ( ie the one clip on the plate near the grill ), this then helped secure the light unit & it passed 3 more mots like this.
if your headlights are like this ( outside clips broken near the wings ) then as long as the inner clips near the grill are inplace & the plate the clips hold are on the headlight unit tightly ( no movement in the plate at all ) then you should not have a problem unless the tester is a very, very picky SOB who also did not get any the night before :} )
alternatively if you know a fellow mondy owner nearby & they are willing to swap out the headlights for a half day etc then just swap out to a secure set for the test & be done, swap back to your lights after the test & find another testing station next time round :L
