Default Brake lights socket

Just bought some tail lights from a 2004 350z part out. These lights didnt come with sockets and the tail lights i have now do not connect the same way. I am looking for the correct sockets so i can connect new lights. Brake lights socket-both-sockets.jpg

I have heard really crazy things about 350Z taillights, such as losing horsepower with aftermarket taillights and such. Crazy thing is, I'm not even kidding!

I would say sell these and try to find yourself a pair of 06+ LEDs so you have correct OEM. Even the JDM is fine if clear is your thing.
