'67 front parking/turn light bulb socket
Mine keeps losing its connection. Can just the socket be replaced? Or do you need the whole housing?

Re: '67 front parking/turn light bulb socket
YI havent looked into that spicific light but you can probably just replace the inner contacts portion of the socket, its a little fiber disk with 2 electrical contacts with pig tails and a spring, usually they are avalable at an auto parts store sitting on a rack.
Another option is to try and push the wires thru from the back side maybe using a little lube to get it going, then see if you can pull it out far enough to reach the spring and try and stretch it a little then feed it back in.

I bought a socket at oreilly's for like 2 bucks. Its on the row with the fuses and bulbs. There's tabs on the socket that you just bend over the housing works great now.
