I went to replace the bulbs on my front park lights and when removing one, the spring loaded connector in the housing was fused to the bulb. So when I twisted it to remove it the contact was ripped out of the socket. Has anyone ever replaced the bulb socket in these parking light housings? My housings are in pretty decent shape, no rust or other damage. And I am not sure how easy it is to find a new housing.

 

You want a pigtail like this. NAPA has them.

 

Thanks Wyomingford! So with this I just replace the guts of the socket?

 

That's correct, cut the existing wires right at the back of the socket, remove the guts from the socket, and slide the wires of the new pigtail through the hole in the back of the socket.
