license plate lights wont stay in

I'd like to get these working properly to keep the law off me.

It seems the light sockets and the location where they attach to are disintigrated. The lights wont stay in the bumper holes and fall out.

The lights work but just wont stay in the bumper/license plate holder.

Can you get parts at dodge for this?

My 95 had the same issue, I just used some clear silicone to hold em in. I would imaging DC has them for a small kings ransom.

I removed mine and cut the plastic down so it was flat. I went to Discount auto and got 2 generic tag light assemblies to put in their place.

Check Ebay. I got my bumper and plate holder there.

I seem to remember the license plate holder wasn't all that bad at the dealer.

The light lenses, now they are another story. the local dealer wanted 24 bucks for 1 light lense !!!!!

Also try rockauto.com, and newmoparparts.com.

I bought my light lense from them for half what the local guys wanted.

You can add me to the list of them falling out. I also used clear silcone to hold them in, that was two or three summers ago and no problems since!
