Source for gauge bulb sockets?

The wiring for the gauges on the car I am working on now had been hacked up by a PO, including a small resulting short/fire.

I am now putting everything back together with dash leds from Rothaus or eTarga, but I am missing 8 bulb holders...the spring-loaded holders for the light bulb bases/led bases themselves. I dont want to scavenge on another of my cars...couldnt find a part number in PET, a part here or a generic one on Summit...any help?

Thanks

every car with VDO gauges uses these same holders, a quick google search shows you can nab them on ebay, as well as a bunch of suppliers for early VW parts, like here

I purchased some LED's for my gauges from rothaus. Based on their quality and his instructions, I'd go with anything he provides.
