A bulb socket terminal to be accommodated in a socket body of a connector bulb socket. The terminal includes a base, an elastic contact portion adapted to contact a filament or an earth of a bulb on one side of said base, and a connecting portion adapted to be connected to a connector on the other side thereof. The bulb socket terminal is integrally formed intermediate of the elastic contact portion and the connecting portion with a resin flow blocking wall which contacts an insert-molding metal mold to seal an area of the elastic contact portion at the time of insert-molding. Accordingly, the area where the elastic contact portion extends is sealed by the rein flow blocking wall at the time of insert-molding with use of the metal mold to thereby prevent the resin from flowing into this area. Therefore, the spring elasticity of the elastic contact portion will not be restricted.
