blade bulb socket

Hey all, been awhile since I've been in here.....
I have a front bumper turn signal socket that's corroded.
It's the 90° socket.
Having gone to several parts stores and seeing all the various sockets
(round), and none for the blade type bulbs, I finally called the GM house.

me: '99 90° front bumper turn signal bulb socket.
him: yes, that's in stock at $67.50.
me: .......... socket only.........
him: socket only.
me: ..... no one will see it; I don't need the gold plating.
him: they only come with the gold and platinum plating.

So..... since I can't find 'em at the parts places, refuse to be screwed
like that without dinner and a movie first, anyone have a quick list of
what cars I might find them on wrecking yard style?

thanks
Kurt

Thanks,
I got one from a camaro at a wrecking yard to replace the corroded/melted ones I had.
Now I'm looking for a break in the wiring harness because it's not getting current on that line.
That's going to be fun.....

Oh joy, oh bliss.....
But would it act that way?
I have ALL the turn signals with the exception of the front right signal.
I haven't pulled up the diagrams but would assume the switch would activate
relays for an entire side at a time.

Nope, 'taint the switch.  Shoved a pin in the wire and put the meter on it.
both front and rear on that side is getting a signal.  Now I have to check it
going into and out of the DRL module.  Should be interesting to try and get to.....
