I'm reworking the tail light socket on a donor fender before cutting out a section and grafting into my car. My sockets are basically sculpted from Bondo and are smooth on the bottom ledge but the "good" fender has sort of a nub which looks like it would hold the plastic tail light assembly up against the top of the socket. Is this thing supposed to be here?

Yes, it's a 75 car. Does this mean that the tail light sockets in the rear section are a bit wider (top to bottom) than the earlier cars that didn't need the nub to hold the bumpers?
I have no frame of reference if somebody wouldn't mind grabbing me a measurement. |
