Installed mine today. Not sure if you guys got the same one but mine came with something that looks like an extension with a rubberish socket. The original socket is hard plastic so trimming the other 2 tabs would be necessary to screw in the socket in place but if yours came with the extension you can just plug your bulbs in using the rubber socket. I'd post pics but I just got it done and only remembered to post after the fact. I'm actually wondering if I messed up my socket since the DIY instruction stated that the pin connectors? are smaller but everything in mine seems to fit in place.
