6 Volt Horn Restoration

Is there anyone that specializes in restoring 6V horns? I’m looking for a year correct horn for my 57 beetle and someone to restore it. I’m sure it has the screw terminal connectors. The appearance of the 6 volt horns changed over the years so how do you know if one is year specific? Is there a serial number that tells the year it was made?

Thanks

Since my post, I have viewed a lot of 6 volt horns but I'm still not sure what the original horn for a 57 bug looks like. Can it be either a Hella or Bosch and what is the correct size? I know it has screw terminals. A picture would certainly help.

Thank You

Hella has code B31/6V. Looks like this:
