Default Ro-mc parts

Can anyone help with Ro-Mac parts. I need to replace the light socket.
I know they're out of business but does anyone know of a replacement part?

The light socket in what, a garage door opener or something else? If it is the garage door opener, the light socket maybe repairable, or you may get lucky and someone will have an old opener around that they can donate or remove the light socket. I will check my garage for parts, at one time I had 2 openers laying around, but I think I scraped these for parts a few weeks ago during a cleanup. I do still have an operational unit that I can look at.
I am willing to see if I can advise on rebuilding the existing unit, send me a PM and we can discuss over the phone.

I just checked, and I do not have the replacement socket, and the unit does not appear to be repairable, but I found a possible replacement at Lowes:
Access Denied
This will probable require drilling a suitable hole for the screw for the mounting tab and removal of the cover to connect the wires.
Hope this helps.
