Both my bulb holders 63 ghia have no contacts for the bulb contacts to sit against. Previous owner had soldered wires directly to the two bulb contact (dual filament ). Cant see how the wires were connected to the bulb holder. Is that connection piece I can find. ?Any ideas ?

Never seen that before. Pretty ingenious/desperate!

This might be what you need: https://www.mtmfg.com/part/view/lenses-and-seals-f...amp;src=96

Looks like it is supposed to attach where the nubs are next to the bulb. Are those screw heads? I can't tell. You may have to drill out the nub and tap a thread to screw in the contact unit.
