September 3, 201014 yr comment_329822 I've got the 2 valance sockets with wires and 3 prong connectors. One is pretty much perfect the other needs a little cleaning. My only tail light sockets have already been cut up.If you want the valance sockets let me know.John Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/36943-need-light-sockets/#findComment-329822 Share on other sites More sharing options...

September 3, 201014 yr comment_329867 Frankie, if rust is the only problem, you might try soaking the sockets in EvapoRust. The stuff works. Finish with a rinse in water, dry thoroughly, and spray with WD-40.

September 3, 201014 yr Author comment_329896 Alot of it is rust but even with the rust gone i am having problems soldering the grounds back on. Plus i have ruined my socket base by taking it out. I was trying to fix the possiblity of a grounding problem between the spring and the back of the socket. I will use it though for some other stuff, always happy to have someone else rat out the bad products for the good ones JK. Hope all is well fastwoman Frankie Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/36943-need-light-sockets/#findComment-329896 Share on other sites More sharing options...
