     I just looked on the internet and did not come up with a complete assy. with pigtail.  But I had problems with mine and replaced them on my 74 with units from a camper world type place.  They were the same things and I spliced the wires in and sealed them better than factory anyway.
     Sorry I could not find OEM parts, but maybe someone will know a place to get them.

#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.

American Auto Wire which I am a vendor for sells the harness complete with all the plugs.

Are you talking about the actual sockets that go in the taillights?
