Default Directional Socket....

Anyone know who may carry the rear directional socket? I am having some electrical problems and I want to replace both rear brake light/directional sockets. TIA

Just about any good autoparts store.

You'll have to drill/cut out the old one-

Disclaimer-I'm not sure about the later years light housings...

Summit sells one that you can either screw or rivet back in place-it's the ones I used.

Richard454 & Paul74,
Thank you both very much. I went to NAPA and they had the socket.
The brake light on the drivers side was VERY dim and when I put the directional on for the drivers side it also made the directional on the passengers side blink, but very dim. New socket fixed it all. Thanks again.

Often people do not think of NAPA for fairly routine parts. But if they don't have it they will get it from warehouse in one day, in my case Montreal.
