Yeah,
I was able to pull the wires back into the light and tighten the nut fine.
The main reason for trashing the socket was when it came to setting the lights up. If I left enough slack in the cables inboard of the chassis I could alter the lights angle without removing the wires, just perhaps only cut a few cable ties.
It would be a pain disconnecting the wires each time just to set them up..
