| I have a closet with original 1940 fixture with pull chain. The pull chain no longer works so i went to home depot and then my local hw store for replacement. I brought the old fixture with me. Both sold me a replacement fixture that is a tad too small to fit the box screw posts so i can't mount it to the ceiling box. I was hoping i could just replace the pull chain piece with screw light socket but i can't find that either. Any thoughts on how to fix what seemed simple?? Thanks! |
