parking light socket repair

Just a small repair, hardly earth shattering but useful...

 

If you look closely, you can see the plastic on my corner marker

pigtail socket has gotten brittle with age, vibration has broken off

the locking tabs. It wouldn't stay in the lens housing any more.

Using a very small sheet metal screw and piloting the hole with

a #40 (3/32") gives just enough to hold it in place, it doesn't have

to be tight - just snug. It doesn't have to come all the way out

to change the bulb either, it supports it just enough to trap the socket

in the hole. easy deal.
