Scott,
I just went and looked as I have done this recently. I replaced my tail
light sockets as the bullet receptacles had broken in some places and the PO
repair was somewhat funky. The new chrome bulb socket pieces have hard ground
bullet receptacles whereas the originals did not and relied on the screw to
body. I ran a new black wire to a hard ground to the stud and nut that holds
the license plate light. IMHO a hard ground is recommended for tail/brake
lights on a car that is so questionably visible. Eliminate the possibility of
failure.
