Wall Sconce Light in 2007 KS falls apart

My 2007 KS has a wall light sconce that has stripped threads in the socket that supports the bolt that holds the whole light together. I was able to get maybe one or two threads to grab, but after a days worth of traveling, it came a part again. I called Newmar, and they do not make this light any more. (not a surprise)

Ideally I would like to buy a used one from someone in the group, but if anyone has found a repair idea, I'd appreciate hearing from you.

If you can still get it to grab two threads you could put some red loctite on it.
