indicator bulb sockets?

I can’t believe this has turned into such a problem. I am completely rewiring my Farmall 656 and wanted to replace the indicator & illumination sockets in the gauges as the old ones are broken/ corroded etc. I need at least 2 with insulated grounds for the amp & oil indicator lights and 4 more for gauge illumination w/ or w/o insulated grounds. All snap into 5/8” holes.
Went to NAPA with a sample and they just gave me a blank stare. Been looking online and haven’t had much luck there either. Found the original part, I think #161998R11, for a mere $30 a piece but that’s ridiculous. Anybody have a realistic source for anything that might work?

I'd take a look on e-bay. Also do a google search for automotive lamp sockets. You'll have to wade through a bunch of stuff, but I bet you'll find what you're looking for.
Good Luck and God Bless

Thanks for the leads. looks like they will do for the gauge illumination sockets but I need isolated ground sockets for the oil & alternator lights. None of these seem to have isolated grounds. Would like to find a source for those as well.

Rockauto does have one like the DLS-472 for a cheaper price.

Thanks

Try 715,815,915 combine salvage yards.
I needed dash light sockets for my 560 and they are the same.

Run a "where used" on the part number to see if other models used it.
