mk1 tin top tail light connector (Y reg)
Hi all
Can anyone advise as to where I can purchase the connector that's attached to the tail light loom which connects to the light cluster.
Alternatively is there a work around as one of the blades within the connector that is crimped to a wire has snapped. I can get blade out but don't seem to be able to purchase one identical in shape hence trying to source the entire connector.
Thanks in advance

If you are talking about the whole socket, which is easily replaced as an assembly, there is a Delco (gm) brand out there with the dual pin (pad) connection for the tail/brake light socket cheaper than OEM, you will have to match the wires as the colors are different than the OEM.
