My latest one was a 54. I found that if you cut apart a '60 - '72 Chevy P/U tail light assembly and remove the socket, it's exactly the same diameter as the hole in the front park light housing. After the socket is cut free from the tail light, open the peened over flange until it will fit into the park light's housing, then peen it back down. Wire it up and you're done. On the 47 - 53's, I just get a dual element socket from a parts house and weld it in place of the old single. No "lollipop" turn signal on top of the fenders!
