Have you tried junkyards at all?
You can find stuff like that all the time there so long as they have an MX-3 in the yard.
If not, what about just any general 1197 bulb socket? Try that too.

If they're still in somewhat decent shape you can try sanding the rust off or scraping it off with a skinny nail if it's deep. One of my side marker needs to be sanded off every 3-4 months.
