    Default Stop light bulb holder are they available as a new item

    One of my stop light bulbs was blown and when I went to fit the bulb I find the bulb holder is all chalky and wasn't actually connected to the lens part so I'm wondering if the holder parts are availabe so I could solder a new pair into the wiring harness.

    I'd be very surprised if your local auto electrician doesn't carry them as a stock item.

    Yes, bursons and repco stock them.

    but the design is crap and the implementation is cheap. you will blow a bulb every month or 2 for life.

    Replace them with LED's.

    I ended up buying 4 from the Holden dealer and spliced and soldered them in and placed the heat shrink tubing over the repaired area.

    How much did the sockets cost from Holden? Thanks!
