Default 2002 tailight bulb sockets

Friends car. The tail light sockets (turn and brake) are somewhat corroded and rusty. One has a broken internal tab. So far not seeing these available. Anyone know where or a factory part number so maybe there is another gm that uses the same configuration. I can wire them in, just need the sockets not the whole wiring harness.

Go to a junkyard and find another monte or impala and clip the sockets and wire them into yours. Easy peasy.

I used to do the boneyard plenty in my time, and I hadn't got out for this, but I am not sure there are a lot of these in the yards. Maybe other cars use the same socket that is why I was trying to find what would possibly be the same before looking around. Just today the owner was looking up the lens assembly as that had been leaking (part of why it was rusty and corroded) and he found that whole assembly and apparently it comes with the whole harness, sockets and bulbs for about $100 total at rockauto. Not cheap but not a bad deal for what all he is getting compared to some other places. Thanks.

100 bucks for the whole assembly isn't bad at all.
