I am replacing my 2000 tail light housings which are 2 bulb (1 for stop & t/s & 1 for b/u) to the 2001 style. Going from this,

My problem is the 2000 bulb socket has 3 tabs on it for the b/u lights & the new housings for the 2001 only have 2 slot openings, I can not just replace the bulb socket because where they plug into the harness connector is different. I am thinking of getting new sockets & the electrical connectors from Rock Auto & replace them.
