Re: Cameo rear tailight sockets

If you are just looking for bulb sockets they sell them at trailer supply houses. I would buy two for the newer style two prong elements and pop ribbet them in. The bright bulbs from Ron Frances are way brighter than the LED's on your link you posted.

The bulb sockets on the Cameo mount a bit different then others, or I would have just used generic replacements. I don't want to ruin the housings or risk that in any way as they are pot metal and very expensive to replace!

Jb Weld them in before that solder a ground to outside of lamp fixture and run the wire with the others.
