I did it a little different to @sheppy1.

I got some 501 bulb holders

   

I did a nice solder joint on the extra boot light.

   

On the other side I de-pined the connector and wrapped the wires around the pins then put heat shrink over it.

I also left the resistor plug on and just put som heat shrink over it.

I also found I had to cut the ridges off the side of lamp this meant I didn't have to cut more trim away.
