Rusty Position light sockets

Both of my Fender Position Light bulb holders have gone rusty, so I thought lets get some new sockets, cant be that expensive,, OH YEH, you have to buy the whole assembly at the usual BRP rip off price of 52gbp, probably about 70$ EACH. So I went and had a word with my old friend eBay and look what I found





2.$50 FOR 10
And they're made od rubber, not a perfect fit but good enough, at that price you can change them every year.

So any of you guys have this problem you can fix it without breaking the bank

Nice one Alex.
Always good to find cheaper alternatives to buying the whole thing from BRP :-)

Now that you've changed them out, try ACF-50 to keep them working and not corroding.

We all like to learn of alternatives. Thanks.

A little vaseline on bulb base/socket.

Always worth doing a little checking before paying dealer prices.... There are suppliers for all that kind of thing out there and one just has to look around. I found the Beaver outfit has most of them...https://www.easternbeaver.com/Main/E.../switches.html :thumbup:
