brake light sockets

I was able to find some at pep boys- they were a bit pricey- but they were a perfect match. I found one for brakes and tails.

hope that helps....

brake light sockets

My 79 F150 has one 1157 socket for Brake/turnsignal/and tailight, and a second socket for backup light. One of my Brake/tailight sockets was bad and I got a replacement socket from CalTerm at my local autoparts store for a couple of bucks. They had two types, one labeled Ford, and another for: Ford,Chrysler,AMC use the Ford,Chrysler,AMC type. The Ford only type sticks the bulb out into the lense. The brighter fillament should come on w/ brakes, and turnsignal, the dimmer one for taillights.
