wtb ac-heater control light socket

hi y'all
I'M TRYING TO REPLACE THE LIGHT SOCKET THAT FITS INTO THE AC CONTROL(OR THE HEATER CONROL UNIT THAT FIT IN THE DASH). IT IS A PLASTIC SOCKET WITH METAL PRONGS THAT PUSH INTO THE HOLE IN THE AC/HEATER CONTOL ASSEMBLY. I'VE GOT ONE GOOD ONE BUT NEED THE OTHER. THIS IS THE LIGHT THAT BACKLIGHTS THE AC/HEATER CONTROL ASSEMBLY.

THANKS, MONGO1957

I believe it is the 5/8" diameter single lead self grounding.

Hey sorry to Hijack this thread, but about the bulbs to these, are they avaiable at any parts store or do they have to be special ordered.

The lamp used is a #1893 which according to my manual has an output of 2 candlepower. You might wish to use a #1816 which is 1/3 brighter with a candlepower output of 3.
