Default 2-2.5" round led brake/blinker/stop light for 929 eurobikes undertail any ideas?

Ok so I have the eurobikes undertail on my 929. The light sockets for the 1157 bulbs are molded in plastic. When the base of the bulb gets hot the plastic gets hot and the grooves for the bulb have expanded.

The bulb will slide back and forth about 1/32 of an inch causing it to loose contact with the metal contacts and I kept loosing my lights. (Imho it is a poor design the way the bulb and contacts connect as well as making a light socket out of plastic.... but what do I know?)

So I buy an undertail from ebay for 160. I figure I can use the round led lights in my eurobikes undertail. When it arrives the led assemblies are too small so I mount the entire new undertail.

The fitment is poor to say the least on the ebay one. So I am now again back to square one. I was thinking about getting a set of round led's and making a custom taillight with the eurobikes light assembly. The ones I am looking at are three way round led light clusters.

I can probably make the 2.5" ones fit but really need something about 2-2 1/4 " to fit.

Anyone know where I can get one of these in 2-2 1/4" size? Or if there is anyone who sells em for less than 35 each?
