Does any one know of a source for the bulb sockets. Must be relatively generic. Looking to put together freshly chromed 53 lights and don't want to have issues with cruddy old connections. I thought Chev repop mobs would have but can't find em.

Another source could be Restoration Supply Co. in Escondido Calif.   www.restorationstuff.com 

I bought new rear light bulb sockets for my '49 from them.
