A bulb socket including a socket body from a synthetic resin and a contact member made from a conductive metal material in the socket body. The socket body is integrally formed by: a socket main portion constructed by axially connecting a bulb fitting section and a power connecting section, a flange portion outwardly extended from the outer surface of the socket main portion, and engaging blocks formed on the socket main portion. A plurality of arc-shaped slits and arc-shaped resilient insulative contact strips are formed in the flange portion so as to extend along the outer peripheral surface of the bulb fitting section, and contact protrusions are formed on the arc-shaped resilient insulative contact strips so as to provide resiliency of the arc-shaped resilient insulative contact strips to enable more secure mounting of the bulb socket at a mounting hole in a panel.
