Default Bought side indicators

So i bought a pair of side indicators for my 2005 C6. I am converting a US into EU spec. I got the lamps and the bulps, but i cant find a socket for it. I don't know the type of the bulp

http://www.mts-carstyling.com/epages...oducts/O0875-Y

As you can see it is kind of a wedge bulp

Can anyone help`?

Thanks

Thomas

Try checking with Forum Vendor Gene Culley (GM Parts House).

Good luck with the rear turn signals/brake light change over.

Looking at the picture of the side marker in the link you posted, it does not show the recepticle that the bulb socket goes into very well. It looks like it might be the same as the front side marker socket. You could see if the front side marker socket fits the side marker you purchased. That might get you one step closer to a solution. If it does, here's a link to that auction site that has them for $10 each.
