question for the HID guys

I bought my HIDs without any bulb sockets (turn signal or parking light) or HID ballasts. I finally got a hold of some turn signal bulb sockets but I can't get any bulb sockets for the parking light-the original clear piece on top of the amber turn signal. Can someone tell me if the side marker bulb sockets- one in the bumper, are same as the ones for the parking light inside the headlight ? I would try this out but unfortunally my sidemarkers are missing on my car, I just ordered up some new ones. Nissan doesn't sell the sockets separatelly eighter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

actually let me take that back. the BULBS are the same size (194 wedge), if that's the same thing as saying sockets, then okay. i have a feeling that the sockets are the same size though. i can always confirm when i leave the office, i'll just check real quick.

Did you check w/your dealer? I was able to buy just the sockets from mine a while ago for ~$5 or so (sidemarker sockets). Wasn't sure if you meant you can't buy the parking light or sidemarker sockets, or both, but just letting you know that you might find a dealer who could sell you just the socket.
