Does anyone know where I can find one of these little guys? It seems the local auto part stores do not carry them. Am I stuck having to deal with the dealer?

TIA.

 

have you tried any local salvage yards?

 

or your local autoparts stores may have them....

 

Go to any Ford dealer. IIRC, it is about $7.

 

As we're on the topic of the license plate lights.......here's a good tid bit of information for everyone. When one of those little bulbs break, use tools to remove the bulb and NOT your fingers. I went to replace a bulb and the tip was cracked so I tried to pull it out of the tight harness with my forefinger and thumb....yes the pain was coming. I squeezed it a little too hard and the bulb broke causing my finger and thumb to be stuck with shards of broken glass. Talk about a pretty deep, very painfull, bloody mess.

Moral of the story, never use your bare hands.

 

Yes this would be why I either wear gloves or use a rag when pulling lights that require some squeazing.

 

i have the ones from my 03 rear bumper

 

Sent you a PM.

 

i have 2 also that i'd send you if you just pay for shipping

 

Thanks. I ended up picking up one at the dealer today.
