T-Bird Stop light
My 94 bird has the 3157 bulbs in the stop lights. It is not a round socket but rectangular. The contacts must be bad because it keeps burning the little wires on the bulb and loses contact. Tryed to buy a new socket but canot find one. Ford will sell the whole harness for $150. Any ideas out there?

I'm sorry. Forgot to tell you none of the parts stores carry any sockets for this type bulb. That is my problem. It is not the ordinary round socket.

These sockets ARE available from the aftermarket. I'll check at my local Car Quest store on Monday & get you a part number.
The empty socket & terminal kit is available from Ford. Find a parts counterperson who knows how to use the parts manual.

Got the socket at NAPA, took about half hour to install. It is fixed. Thanks to the experts that take the time to help us DIYS get things done.
