Car Forum / Antique and Collectibles / Studebaker / September 2005Socket terminals needed
I have purchased some rechromed 55 tail light housings. They have none of the wiring for the bulbs. If I remember correctly, they need terminal ends with a spring and an oval shaped block that the wires pass through. The oval shape keeps the setup from rotating when the bulb is twisted in. Anyone have these either new or used? Thanks Alex Rhode Island Wire, http://www.riwire.com/ , has contacts, springs and insulators for lamp sockets. Mike M. All I see there for 55's is complete harnesses. > Rhode Island Wire, http://www.riwire.com/ , has contacts, springs and > insulators for lamp sockets. > Mike M. Look under "Supplies", and "Buttons, Washers, and Springs". You may need to salvage that "oval shaped block"; or find new sockets with the same type in an auto parts store.

I think I posted a while back that I'd found an aftermarket socket with the phenolic block that matched the original stude sockets, do a search and see if I posted what it was (I forget) nate alex i used to get the innards for light sockets from napa.but i dont know if they are available anymore. but you have to look around for "pigtail socket assembly" to see if you can find something that will suit your needs. homer No luck at Sasco, Studebaker International of NAPA . >I have purchased some rechromed 55 tail light housings.
