Where to buy license plate lamp socket/pigtail?

[fishmunger]

Anyone know if a vendor is reproducing these? Been looking around, without much luck so far. My housing and lens will clean up ok, I just need to find the socket w/ pigtail.

Got mine from Ecklers...

Hmm, looks like the one carried by Ecklers and others is a bit different. I am wondering if I can cannabilize it for the socket?

NAPA has a handful of universal sockets that will work. Drive on down and pick from what they have.

Thanks I'll try that! Anyone know what bulb number is used on the step bumper light like mine? I can't tell, my bulb is destroyed. I think it would be easier to match it to a socket if I knew what I had to begin with.

That looks like the setup on my aftermarket bumper and that you have all necessary parts but the socket and glass "dome". See pictures.

You can try this website.

Maybe this one?

Yup, that's my setup! And I have the glass dome and all parts, just not pictured. It's just the socket I need to source. Do you know what bulb yours uses?

I might take a gamble on that socket you recommended. I'm assuming that thing is grounded through the bumper. I wonder if it will work if I have to jb weld it in place...?

If I remember correctly there should be two screws that hold the assembly together. If those are removed the socket and gasket pop right out. Think the bulb is a BP97. Just like an 1157 tail light bulb but smaller.

...and yes grounded through the bumper.

I can't give a definitive answer on the bulb since I am 2000 miles from that bumper, but it may be a #67 (single filament). Also, there may be other socket options on the website I posted. You may want to give them a call.

Here's a better picture of mine.
