A holder for a lamp bulb comprises an insulating housing having a terminal receiving part and a socket for the lamp bulb. The terminal receiving part defines first, second and third terminal receiving cavities opening into a terminal receiving end of the housing. One of the cavities receives an electrical terminal having a spring contact beam projecting into the socket for engaging one contact of the lamp bulb, and a slot receiving one lead of a diode. Another of the cavities receives an electrical terminal having a slot for receiving the other lead of the diode and a further slot for receiving a first supply lead. When these two terminals have been inserted into their cavities, a third terminal is inserted into its cavity, after the leads of the diode have been securely lodged in the diode receiving slots of the first two terminals. The third terminal has a spring contact beam which projects into the socket for engaging the other contact of the bulb, and a slot for receiving a second supply lead. All of the slots of the terminals open towards the terminal receiving end of the housing.
