Marker light sockets, where to get? - 03/28/09 11:41 PM

OK, I know I can't be the first one to hit thie. Where can you get replacement sockets to pop in the marker light housings like on 70 Chargers and Challengers? The rear harnesses that Evans makes has the pop in type of socket, where can you get those to do that to the front? I know I will have to run a ground lead to the housings. Any/all help appreciated.

Yup,
They have those that fit the taillights, (1157 bulbs), and a hole about the size of a quarter. I need one to fit the 1895 bulbs, goes in hole about the size of a nickel.

got a couple for my truck from Car Quest; made in Taiwan and crap! The b/u light one works but the tail light one would NOT unless I held pressure against the bulb to help it make contact!

He's asking where to get the SIDE MARKER light sockets. Not tail light, brake light or back-up light sockets. I'd be interested in this source as well.

I just got some from Oreilys autoparts. I am going to work on installing them this weekend.

May be the same parts as Napa?

Is this the same style socket E-body SMLs use? If so, I should have some ends I can cut and send you off some partial wiring harnesses.

Exactly, E-body side marker lights. The rears are one wire and "snap" into the housings. This is what I'm looking for. I appreciate your willing to cut some off, but there has to be a source out there, as the new wiring harnesses which are sold have these on them. Anyone have a source?

Pico light bulb sockets. Summit carries them I think. A little surfing and you might be golden.
