A socket housing (14) is provided for light emitting diode (LED) packages (12) having an LED printed circuit board (PCB) (18). The socket housing (14),includes first and second housing segments (46a, 46b), that define a recess (16) therebetween for receiving an LED package (12) therein. The first and second housing segments (46a, 46b) are configured to engage the LED PCB (18) of the LED package (12) to secure the LED package (12) within the recess (16). A relative position between the first and second housing segments (46a, 46b) is selectively adjustable such that a size of the recess (16) is selectively adjustable for receiving differently sized LED packages (12) therein.
