Bulb sockets for 123 4-brake light conversion?

I have asked around at the boneyards in my area and they are all fresh out of 123 chassis. I understand scrap steel is high right now.... I am looking for (2) extra bulb sockets to do the 4-brake light conversion on my 300D. If anyone has some of these and was willing to sell them that would be great.... Thanks, RT

How many bulb sockets are you going to use from each side ? Can't you just use one of them for both sides ? (just curious)

There is an additional bulb location on each side of the US spec 123. This is because the Euro version has a rear fog lamp in this location. I would need one plastic bulb socket for each side. RT

He needs two (2) sockets to make the conections. I think there is 2 or 3 per side that can be use for the conversion, but don't hold me to that as I have slept since in did the conversion.

You can use any of the 4 large ones. Turn, Park, Backup, Brake. I've got a couple extras you can have. How does $1.00 plus shipping for both sound? I don't remember what I paid for the housing. I bought 2 of them from the local yard a while back.
