California Vintage tail light change

California Vintage 2006 - 2008 model years seem to share a common failure issue regarding the tail light bracket.  It cracks near the two holes that are closest to the sharp bend that supports the light.

When this unfortunately happened to me, my tail light housing was dangling from the cable harness without my knowledge as I rode to work.
Rather than replace the bracket with a new one, I decided to try to replace the tail light (sometimes referred to as the “coffee can”) with a reproduction 1933-1936 Ford tail light.
