For $50, you send in what you have, and I'll see if I can find one good enough in my stores to refurbish. If I can't, I'll pay you for the core.

Let me send you a photo of it first - most of the sockets are severely corroded, and one has been pulled off entirely.

So? You think that's butchered? You ought to see some of the crap (can I say that word here?) that comes by my workbench.

You'd be surprised what I can do for you.

Granted, it isn't that butchered, but I was fishing for an easy way out.

If this is what you fellows call "good," I'd rather get new taillight sockets and fix the existing wiring.

Are (decent) sockets available that will fit the original taillight housings, or is this a '71-73 specific part?

I spent an hour or so revamping the wiring today. Much improved, though I'm still short a socket for the left reverse lamp - that's all I need at this point.
