ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a front mounting socket for a gas light tube that can be mounted and removed from a sign substrate without requiring access to the rear portion of a sign enclosure. The front mounting socket is installed and removed from the sign surface substrate by turning two diametrically positioned screw members which are a part of the retaining clips. Each retaining clip comprises a retainer member and a screw member supported in a screw groove formed in the socket body and the retainer member defining a retaining surface that engages the sign surface substrate when the operator tightens each screw member until the retainer member abuts the sign substrate, thereby interposing the sign substrate between each retainer member and the retaining surface of the mounting surface which secures the socket to the sign.
