As title says, i need pretty much all the lamp and bulb holders for my Corvette machine.

They are all pretty knackered (as my corvette was basically flooded lol).

i know you can buy new, but if i buy new for everything, it will blow the budget completely!

So ideally, i'd like a large job lot of good 2nd hand bulb/lamp holders for under the playfield.

Cheers

Did you contact me via eBay? Or just a co-incidence?

Cheers, popped those on my watch list.

I still need a selection of different ones if poss. Any of the restoration guys got 2nd hand ones they want rid of? Or anyone breaking a machine (dare I say it lol)

Search for pinball sockets on ebay. There are loads of listings and the shipping is reasonable even from America.
 
cheers! i serched that and there are loads!

now....stupid question time......are lamp holders pretty much standard from all makes and years? i.e. williams, sega, data east, gottlieb etc? and are they pretty much the same all years? like 1980s machines use the same holders as later machines?

If they are the same bulb numbers then they will be the same holders

Although some machines used unique holders for some areas with longer reach etc
 
If you're buying from the US factor in the VAT (20%) and handling fee (+£8 for Royal Mail) if the declared value is over £15.
