71-72 R/T Tail Light Harness

yeap... and will make easier to replace bulbs if you get room between bumper and valence

Honestly I would go with S44 and S45N pieces since they will be wired like the originals, not wired grounds, just chassis. Sure local parts shops will have them

Let us know how it turns out...I am doing the same thing in the spring !!

After chatting with a member he told me it is possible to bend the inner lip and remove the wiring...well see how it goes.

[Nacho-RT74]

yeah, maybe remove wires, backelite and pin terminals, keeping the sockets in place I guess... well that will work too, however half of problems are socket related due the lack of ground because the rust.

Wow nacho thanks!


Should have re worded my other post, he was able to bend the lip and remove the whole socket and than use 2 small hammers to bend it back..so far its been good. Gonna try things on wed or thurs.

Frank,

If you run into problems, let me know or email me a pic of the socket that you might need.  I have a harness that god only knows what it is out of that came with my charger back when I got it.  I figured I would save it just in case a socket went bad or something.
