[Tonz]

changing over headlights today on the FG and removed the passenger side one of these. holds the park light globe. the fat end is the power connection. and dropped it down a drain. grrrr.
Can someone please tell me what it would be named so I can order from a wreckers yard please

It’s called a drain magnet.

Closely related to the “pingf***it”.

thanks oh great man of wisdom

I’d call it a park light bulb holder but Ford have some other term for it.

And there are two sizes, one bigger than the other.

That sucks, blue tack and a stick and fish it out the drain

Nah; in the workshop manual 417-01-51 it's simply referred to as a "holder".

Seems correct to me although at that price you'd expect at least gold coated contacts.
