Just a twist socket and two wires that go back into the harness.Which side is the ground??.Might just skin a wire to wire in a ground.Color coded??.

Sorry guys for the first snap thoughtless reply.A 1157 bulb has got to have two hots and a ground. #-o Next time at the shop I'll have to check it out and let you guys know what I have found.Just getting real tired of side track issues keeping me from my project van. ](*,)

It's supposed to be difficult to insert the bulb incorrectly, but it HAS been done. The hot contacts are slightly off-center.
