Hey guys, I am looking for replacement sockets for my daytime running lights. I can find the plug but what I need is the socket that the bulb goes in... If you were to look at yours the socket will unplug from the DRL harness.

I have looked and looked... I called the dealer and he says Part Number #88986265... But after research I can see that is the plug and not the socket.

Thanks

I looked into the same issue, and was told by GM that you need to purchase the entire DRL which includes the socket. The socket can not be purchased by itself. If anyone else can find just the socket please let me know also.

man, no way will I buy the whole unit... I will seee if I can doctor mine up a bit... It has to cross over to other GM's I wonder...

I will post if I find anything... I also need one of the plugs as well so I may get that from the dealer... he says he has on on hand.

Might check through this site http://www.clipsandfasteners.com/default.asp for the socket you need. Don't know if you'll find it but they do carry clips, fasteners and sockets that are hard to find.

Edit, Could not find the socket at the above site, sorry.

and I need this plug cause mine has a missing retainer clip that holds the light socket in tight (currently using a zip tie):(

Found Pigtail here http://www.acdelcotechconnect.com/pi/wiring-connectors/gm/pigtails/ using your part number. Got sockets there too but not looking good for the one you need, a ls233 looks close but ???? :-(

Ed

Found this part number at Sewell 11517293010 but I cannot find it anywhere else to confirm the number. Item 10 on this page http://hummer.sewellparts.com/oem-catalog/TN02018-Wiring-H2-2009.html good luck in finding your parts cause there was a quanity of 0 at that site.

hmmm good find. I did locate one of those as well on line at this location:
http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/catalog.php

But no luck on the socket. I may get the pig tail from the dealer... he said he would give it to me for 23 bucks... not too bad, however I am not sure I want to splice in to replace... the zip tie works but not really how I like to repair things. I may look for a part out to call the local pick n pulls... I could get by with one socket and one pig tail... but would like to replace both sockets, and the one screwed up pig tail...

Thanks for trying... I would bet good money that the socket will cross over to other trucks... if you look they have a dual filament bulb in it and of course they only use one that I know of... I will keep looking...

:lame:

I think I have one plug from a DRL assembly I bought a while back. Let me know what it's worth to you. I recall the light assembly with plug included was somewhere around $125. If only one will work, let me know and I'd have to dig through my parts in the garage.
