--Have googled my brains out and can't seem to find what I'm looking
for, which is more of a nifty threaded LED panel mount with solderable lugs
on the bottom. I've used them as board mounts too; very handy. The key to
their usefulness is a threaded body, max dia about the same as the 'flange'
on the bottom of an LED. Another good feature: the leads protruding from the
bottom are *not* offset, so the thing sits exactly where the LED would sit
without it. I've found several solderable LED sockets but *all* of them have
the leads offset to one side, which causes problems in the current
predicament. Anyone got a line on something like 1,200 of the kind I'm
looking for?

--Followup to followup: took 2 days for them to get back to me (I
had to call twice) and the bargain basement price is $.86/part in quantities
of 1,000; i.e. the socket costs more than the LEDs I'm putting in them.
Gotta find me the same thing surplus so's I can afford them. The last time I
found 'em surplus they cost $.05 each in any quantity. Sigh..
