C6 Tail Light Socket
One of the tail light sockets on my C6 has given up the ghost and I thought it would be a simple matter to replace it. The socket plugs onto the wire, the bulb push loads into the socket and then the socket twist locks into the tail light lens assembly. I cannot find a replacement socket. GM wants to sell me the entire assembly for about $170. This is not more than a $10 part all over the web for most any other car. Any leads would be appreciated. The numbers on the back of the socket are 4SPX 13411_CA 040911009

One of my sockets was heavily corroded and light was failing. You can no longer buy just the socket. Dealer wanted $268 for a whole light kit...
Luckily Dino’s Corvette Salvage had some for $25!
