So, I tried various heatshrink tubing pieces, and, even though I think it could work, it is inconvenient. It had to be cut at the top rim of the socket, as otherwise the bulb would not go in. But that exposed the metal with very think insulation (which is what heatshrink is).
So I ordered some 3/8" ID, 1/2" OD silicon tubing, and made this
This made fairly thick insulation, close to the original, plus it would not start pulling off the bottom due to some incoming wires' thickness over the socket.
The result is this:
Plays well, and now ready for aloignment. Hopefully, tomorrow.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
