Another step that is not documented with a photo is the enlargement of the socket holes in the taillights. The holes were enlarged to 3/4" using a step-less cone drill bit.
The billet aluminum/brass sockets were purchased from Ron Francis Wiring.
The sockets were mounted into the reflectors using Dielectric Grease.
Care must be used when tightening the large nuts because of the ease of damaging the fine threads. After installing the sockets I applied a couple drops of cyanoacrylate cement to the threads.
Another step not documented is that the white insulators were removed in order to fully slide the waterproof boot up against the nuts.
I used GOOP sealer/contact cement to attach the boots to the sockets.
Dielectric grease was used inside the sockets and on the bulb contacts to prevent corrosion.
Larger versions of these photos are available at my Flicker page.

Enjoy The Ride!
