Hi everyone,
My passenger side rear running lights stopped working and when I was replacing the two new mini bulbs I could see bulb sockets are cracked and no longer hold the new bulb tight engough to work. I have ordered a new taillight harness from euro parts. But it will take several days to arrive. As a temporary fix as I do not want to drive with my lights out, can I just order new pigtail sockets and wire them in like the ones pictured below? Once my harness arrives I will put that in. Does anyone know the correct pigtail buble sockets I could pick up and use until my new harness arrives?
Thanks for any help!
Joey

Should be able to search by the bulb number and find a socket on eBay or Amazon.

A dab of hot glue to the crack or super glue will hold it together enough until the new units arrive.
