anyone see these on ebay in a while, know this is an old post

 

How about an O2 sensor socket? but all I see are 7/8"

 

O2 socket is exactly what it is - but in a 9/16" six point.
Is that not about the most stupid way to mount those lights?
I can point out many other ways it could have been done many times better!
I believe it's an intentional design to pull the customer back to the service department.

i wasn't able to find them on ebay

 

You can save the picture of the socket from the snapon site, and make your own with the dremmel. Make sure it's 9/16" and smooth the slot you cut in it, works fine. Just 2 or 3 clicks, rotate, frustrate, repeat...
break the wire and you are SOL.

 

I had an old 9/16 deep socket that I cut a slot in with my dremel. Worked like a charm.

I so agree its a **** design, designed to give the owner the *****!!!!!

 

I have the same problem. Going to make one as recommended above unless anyone has any new ideas.

 

Best idea is a long slot in a six point deep well socket.

 

Do I need a good quality socket or will a cheap one due?
