Front Turn Signal/Park Light Bulb Socket Rusted

One of my favorite things when I start my Dart on a cold dark morning is to turn the park lights on and walk around her checking lights, what a cool sight! I have a right front amber 1157 park light out, turn signal works. I buy new bulbs and find the old bulb rusted into the socket, will not budge! I mean the base of the bulb and the socket have become "one"! The left side is fine? Strange, eh? Is there a vender that sells that socket/wiring assembly? Thanks in advance!

Shove one jaw of a needle nose plier between base and socket as deep as you can, close and twist. Clean the socket with wire bush, etc.. apply proper grease with new bulb.

Soak it overnight in white vinegar

Well the white vinegar soaking X2 did the trick! Amazingly this same light socket that was "ate up" with rust is now as clean and rust free as the one on the other side! Thank you so much! You Da Man!
