1919 headlite parts

Trying to find correct replacement innerds to get these lites working. What I need are the bullet type connectors that plug in and single contacts with studs off the back to draw the reflector in tight. Also a double contact with hole to plug in the bullets. Any sources out there? Restoration supply in CA does not have the bullet type and the generic ones they have won't let me close down the reflector, too long. Or is there a restoration shop that can make new stuff work that I can send these things to? I'm running out of patience.

Try Hemmings News.
There's a guy that advertises there, I think his name is Alvin Arnold, that deals in pre-WWII auto headlamps. Perhaps he may have what you need.

Hard to tell the size of the bullet connector, but British Leyland used similar bullet connectors in TR6s, MGBs etc. up into at least the 1970s. Here's a place where I buy them:
