Does anyone know of a crimp-type wire bullet connector that mates with the large, 0.1825" I think, bullet females in the wiring harness of many AMCs, eg. my 1960 American?

They appear to be 0.1825" anyway, similar to or the same as the common molded rubber hermaphrodite "trailer connectors", but a 3-1 I have doesn't snap in, too short I think.  

I need three to re-wire the missing (chopped out) headlight and marker light sub-harness, but these things have always been a problem. 

Typical bullet connectors are a smaller 0.157".

Amazon shows some in .18 diameter.  McMaster has them also, but I'd hate to buy a 100 pack!  They look like a larger version of the common commercial terminals.

Thanks! Why couldn't I find those?! I think I searched for ".1825" and ".180" but not ".18". Sheesh. 

I'll buy the 50 red ones from McMaster; it's $2 more than Amazon's 10 quantity! I have a little bin box of crimp connectors, there's room for 50 in there. They do come up from time to time, and I need some "now"-ish. Thanks. 

If somehow they *don't* mate to the AMC harness, I'll post back.
