I did the same on a few other parts as well, when they were not replaceable, like on the fender mounted turn signals.

But I experienced corosion problems inside some old terminals that caused in no continuity at all. Like on the instrument cluster illumination.
These terminals are a two piece part, slided together. And you can't part them without breaking them.

That's why I made my own LED boards to replace the original sockets and bulbs.

Buuut, long story short. I will open up the old terminals and solder the new cables in place if I can't find new terminals.
I contacted
Andy Bernbaum Classic & Vintage Auto Parts Online| Restoration Mopar Parts and he guided me to Rhode Island Wire (
www.riwire.com) and told me "
they will have any connector your need".
We will see.
