Description
Socket with a piece of wiring and a bulb for the left rear lamp for Peugeot 307 SW vehicles from 2005. Bulb functionality not guaranteed.
Product Overview
Used Left Rear Lamp Bulb Holder (socket) supplied with a short wiring harness and a bulb. Intended for Peugeot 307 SW (station wagon) models from 2005 onwards and commonly searched under product codes 6350X2 and 6350X3. This replacement socket is a cost-effective solution for mechanics and DIY car owners who need to restore reliable rear lighting without replacing the entire tail lamp assembly. Compatible with standard rear lamp bulb types used on the model; always verify bulb type before installation.
Function and Typical Failures
The socket provides the mechanical support and electrical connection between the vehicle wiring loom and the rear lamp bulb(s), ensuring power delivery, grounding and stable contact despite vibration and temperature changes. Common failure modes include terminal corrosion, heat deformation or melting of the plastic housing, brittle or cracked connector tabs, damaged wiring, and moisture ingress causing intermittent contact or short circuits. Symptoms are usually dimming, flickering, intermittent operation or complete loss of one or more rear light functions.
Replacement Procedure
- Safety: Disconnect the vehicle battery before starting to prevent short circuits.
- Open the tailgate and remove the interior trim or access panel to reach the rear lamp assembly.
- Remove the lamp module retaining screws or clips and carefully withdraw the lamp unit.
- Disconnect the old socket from the wiring harness and remove the bulb(s) as required (twist or pull depending on bulb type).
- Fit the new socket, connect the wiring harness, and secure any retaining clips or grommets to maintain sealing against moisture.
- Reinstall the lamp assembly and interior trim, reconnect the battery and verify all rear light functions (tail, brake, indicator) on the vehicle.

Installation Recommendations
Apply a thin layer of dielectric grease to the contact pins to minimise corrosion and improve electrical reliability. Inspect the lamp housing seal and wiring loom for signs of heat damage or water ingress; replace any compromised seals or wiring. Ensure connectors are fully seated and clips are secure to prevent movement and moisture entry. Reconnect the battery only after the assembly is complete and perform a full function check of all rear lights.
Why This Part Fails Most Often
Most failures are caused by moisture ingress leading to corrosion, thermal stress from bulb heat, mechanical damage during bulb replacement, or ageing of plastic components and connector pins. Loose or oxidised contacts often produce intermittent faults that can be mistaken for bulb failure.
