The contact (10) has oppositely disposed, spaced apart arms (30, 32) formed to receive and hold the bulb. One of the arms also makes electrical contact with one of the lead-ins. A lead-in straightener (33) is formed on the arm formed to make electrical contact with the lead-in, whereby misaligned lead-ins are straightened when the bulb is inserted into a socket (40).
