Want to Buy: Side Marker Light Socket

Bob C. of Indiana · #1 10-02-2018, 12:39 PM

Wondering if anyone has one laying around or headed to the junk yard, that could send to me, for a better price than I can get on eBay. It fits my passenger side side marker. Here is the one on eBay. 2004 Ford Ranger Edge. Thanks

I need it identical to the one as I posted from eBay. With male and female connector and wiring. Thanks

well you may have to scan the parts list if I selected the wrong one but usually you can get a brand new socket and a New 6" pigtail to accompany it. If you think its worth the same money to buy something as old as what you had and not come across the same or similar issue vs buying something new just to save a few dollars.. not sure how i can help further. sorry

i probably have a couple of those... they likely will only have the socket & a few inches of wire, but it's easy enough to solder the wires or use some butt connectors.

James,I just recently blew a bulb on the passenger side and noticed I only had a couple of inches or less of wire left from the socket, because I did the turn signal mod when I first got my truck. I thought with the next bulb change, I would get a spare to make sure I had plenty of spare wire and swap it out and solder it,shrink tube it,as Buggman suggested. The Rock Auto link you sent me didn't include a picture, to see the link of the pig tail. Now I notice the one on eBay is sold.The junk yards close to me has nothing newer to get one there. I'll give it some time and investigate a few other parts stores online. I'm a proactive freak and try to head off problems, before they occur. Thanks

Buggman if you have a extra laying around with 6-8 inches of wire laying around,shoot me a price and I will take it off your hands.Thanks
