Interesting however all the JB weld, the soldering and breaking off tabs was not necessary at all. Replacement sockets that are almost identical to the origional sockets are available at any good auto supply although they will not be listed under Packard. You have to go through the book and look at the pictures.

Found it was a lot easier to remove the whole turn signal assembly than try to replace the socket in the car. Makes it a lot easier to rewire the thing.
