Dual Filament Bulb Socket, Looking For
 
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1650766070.jpg

This is one of the bulb sockets from the taillight assy. All sockets are the same, for single filament bulbs. I'd like to put a rear fog light in the left side taillight and can do so with the running light position if I can find a dual filament socket for the low watt tail light and a high watt rear fog light.

Anyone come across something that will fit?

would this brake light socket work?:

I'm looking for a plug and play option first. But if nothing presents itself, I may have to resort to doing some actual modification to the mounting plate. Thanks.

Is the front turn signal / parking light a dual filament socket? If so, would this fit the rear? Also there is a open spot in the rear light panel and I have seen mods to add an extra tail or brake light, and this could be a fog light.

It is, but near as I can tell it's molded into the housing and not at all like the rear snap-in-place sockets.

I already have the center (empty) light filled and plumbed into the brake light circuit. The outermost point would be a more appropriate location for a rear fog anyway, IMHO.

I may just have to head to either a European specialty junk yard and poke around, or the nearest auto part store. If someone had a ready solution that would have been great.
