What do I call this?

[Ehkart]

The side marker light on my P5....not the bulb or the housing but the "ballast"? or "socket"? what do I ask for at the Mazda dealership? Someone pulled off my bumper before I owned it and yoinked one out, the other burnt out so I never even knew I was supposed to have them......or that they were lights and not just reflectors anyhow. So I gotta wait for the dealership to open tomorrow(stupid holidays).

its the piece that the bulb clips into, and then it locks into the body/housing and the wire harness clips onto it. didn't pictures were needed.

I think you are looking for the socket?
If so, the part number is
H380515E2
or
B01W51124

Turns out in Mazda's all-knowing vast knowledge and intelligence, they call it a "bulb holder". Funny, huh?

 

[kevcouto]

lol
The part numbers I gave you are for the bulb socket. I dunno if that is what you meant.
