some dash light bulb holders with pigtails.

I'm working on my dash, and I'm going to use the original center window for my turn indicators and warning lights, but since I'm not using a printed circuit the stock bulb holders won't work. I need some bulb sockets that have pigtails on them that will fit in the stock sized holes. These would be like the light holders for autometer guages, except those are too small.

Thanks

Maybe side marker pigtails

Good call! They do take the same bulb. Might take a little modification, but that's probably the best way to go!

That might work. The ones for the dash only have 2 "tabs" on them and the side markers have 4 I believe. Plus the side marker lights snap in, where the dash lights twist in. None the less they may work with a little modification.

I have 6 brand new ones in stock. I tried one in a dash and it looks like they will work with some minor modifications. $4.95 each plus shipping. WES
