Cigarette lighter question

So, as I continue to gather parts for my restoration on my Starfire, I’m looking to replace the cigarette lighter assemblies for the backseat arrests. It’s been easy enough to find new elements for the cigarette lighters themselves, but I’m having a little bit of trouble locating the receiver assemblies for the style that I need. The vehicle is a 1965 and I believe they are Rochester style, that has a single pin style connection for the 12v power to it... but the ones you find, for example on eBay, look as if the pin that the power plugs into is thinner and the connector from the harness will not hold. Any input on this from the hive mind out here?

thanks in advance.

The 1st pic you posted from your 71 looked more correct. The pin connector looked larger and it has the threaded bottom.
