i went to autozone and if you go to where they have some univeral sockets, theres one that says its a licence plate socket and it is almost exactly the same as the running board lights. i think they were like 2 or 3 dollards, they do require you cut and eaither tape or solder it in, but they work great! i ended up buying 3 of them for spares!!

Bought one of these at the stealership. I forgot how much it was - that means it was cheap. This way it will plug in the factory harness nicely.
