Accidentally broke the 555 lamp socket on the electric chair of my TAF - easiest fix would be to buy the bracket with sockets and electrical in one assembly but apparently that is no longer available - bought the bracket by itself and 555 bases - the metal base of the sockets were too large for the holes in the bracket but I think I hand solved that with a dremel tool - the main problem now is that I am trying to use a small bolt (as small as I can find) to attack the sockets to the bracket but it won't let the chair slide onto the bracket - not sure is am too good at riveting which the old one is - if I can get it to fit in the chair then I should be able to solder the wires in and be all set - anyone have any experience with this? - or better yet does anyone know of any source that still may have the bracket attached with the sockets and wires already? Thx for the help

Appreciate it guys - actually figured out that riveting wasn't that hard and bought a tool today and got it done - red led 555 still doesn't stay in well (which is what got me into this initially - broke the first one because I thought it had just gotten a little loose and was trying to pinch it together with pliers) - looked at the pinball bulbs 555 lights and the base is not quite as long as the incandescents and that side of the chair takes a beating - may try a cointaker bulb and if the same just go back to the incandescents on the chair

I actually do have the lights in the scoop as well as most other mods from lees parts as well - they all look great - will prob go back to the incandescants on the chair as I do like the lights as well - thx for all the responses guys
