Default Need help with tail light

I need to know where I can get just the socket for the tail light. I really don't want or need the the complete wiring harness. If you know of a place please let me know. GM harness is $300.00 Plus. Too much to pay for needing just a socket.

You could try giving Gene a call at the Kar Shop:

http://www.geneskarshop.com/

Specializes in Corvette parts, generally from salvaged or wrecked ones. If anyone will have it or sell it, it will be Gene. Even if you need to buy the whole harness from him it will be cheaper than from the service department.

For what it's worth there's one on ebay for about $50. You need to search these key words: c5 corvette tailight harnes
But this is for the entire harness.
