Review on Dorman 84785 9008 Bulb Socket by Shug Quinn

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Hold your OEM sockets

I bought a set of 2 of these. I immediately noticed that the plastic feels much harder than the factory ones. This results in the contacts in the socket not making good contact, it heats up and the ground contact melts. I ended up with (2) tickets with no headlights. As a last resort, I cut some copper wires and stick them in the connector to fill in the dead space. The socket became much tighter on the lamp. I didn't have to develop solutions when this company pays engineers to develop this stuff! BOTH lamp sockets on the lamp were loose.
