Third (center) brake light holder for wagon broke 850

I got a bulb out indicator. After some sleuthing, I found a broken power tong(?) inside the bulb socket. The socket is removable, I think, but not repairable.

The Pick&pulls around here ran out of 850's. HELP! If anyone encounters a wagon with an intact center bulb unit, grab it and I will pay you for it. I believe all of the 850's were dark gray.

Thanks.

Good opportunity to clean the rear window glass on the inside. Waiting for the glue to set on the brittle plastic tabs.

Always check again. I checked the bulb, got continutity. Turned the bulb sideways, nothing. Turned the build again, nothing. Tapped the glass, continuity!

It's is the bulb! At least it is worth a replacement try. Parts store should have an 1156 replacement for a small ransom.
