    Looking for new sockets for the high mount (3rd) brake lamp, Local auto part stores have no listings. Does anyone have a part number or a web site to get them?

    thanks for the help

    Are the '97 sockets different than the other years?

    This look right?

    Edit:
    Oops, that's for the licence plate bulb. Never mind.

    you try sand papering the inside of the bulb sockets? then test for power when the brake pedal is pushed.

    the little clips inside can get corroded too. electrical parts cleaner or pull and pushing the bulb in and out a few times can sometimes fix it.
