I am looking to convert the rear light to a dual brake/rear light. Does anybody have a code or link for a dual pin socket that is the same size as the original single pin unit?
Also looking to convert all the bulbs to led’s. Has anybody done this? Could you please forward the code numbers of the bulbs required and where to buy them.
AMany thanks.

There is a chap who does LED bulbs for both 6V and 12V classics.

i found that LED stop / tail bulbs are too bright on tail light and you run the risk of someone running in the back of you if you brake
as far as conversion , buy a cheap generic rear light unit and take the fitting out , they are generally crimped in
But on my 1946 i fitted that later rear light as its much bigger and therefore safer
