Pioneer SX-780 Dial Light Sockets

I am refurbishing a Pioneer SX-780. Two of the three sockets have one of the two plastic clip legs broken. I am currently holding them in place with 3m Glass Cloth tape but would really like to replace sockets. Has anyone found a socket that will work? I don't mind rewiring if it does not have legs for wire wrapping, I can wire wrap too if it comes with those legs.

Thanks, very innovative solutions. I did find two used ones on ebay and ordered them. Hopefully they are not so brittle that they break before I put them in. Otherwise, I will go with silicone glue option, since I am replacing the bulbs with LEDs I probably won't have to change but silicone is easy to pull off if I need to. Mouser was out of those other parts, but thanks again for pointing me in the right direction. If you don't mind my asking how did you search, I tried Pioneer dial light, light sockets, panel lights and did not find them, but you seem to have found things right away. Am I searching the forum improperly?
