Default Identify the socket?

Can anyone identify this type of socket? I never worried about these lights when I bought the B, but I just busted out the Beige Beast and would like to have them working this year.

Any ideas?

Hard to tell ............

My first thought is that it looks like 912 or 921 etc. push-in type.

Like this: Sylvania 921 Long-Life Miniature Bulb, Twin Pack - Walmart.com

Try find any numbers on the fixture. You don't watt too much heat for the fixture.

Cut the wires and wire in short LED strip light, cuts power draw and heat.

That's a good idea especially if it is an odd socket & you can't find LED's to fit. I just ordered a bunch of the push in type 912/921 etc. LED replacements for the Travel Trailer. The selection available seems to keep on growing with even different color temperatures available now.

I found a 10 pack of 3" x 1/4" LED strip lights with stick on backing at Princess Auto for $20, that's pretty cheap compared to buying LED Bulbs, took a while to wire in but all soldered and heat shrinked and should last forever.
