I have an 82 style front bumper on my 85 with the lights in the bumper.

The socket just spins inside the lens assembly.

Can someone point me in the right direction to getting the correct socket that locks into the lens. I figured it would be a 1/4 turn and lock into place.

Pictures for reference on what I'm working with.

Thank you in advance.

Are the lights in the bumper aftermarket parts or a GM part?
For some reason that bumper light just doesn’t look right.
