Default Inspection lamp socket

From the 401 to 405, Bristol included a Minalite inspection lamp in the tool kit and a 3 pin socket for the lamp, located high on the back of the firewall in which to plug the lamp. Bristol stated that as the inspection lamp socket was connected directly to the car's battery, it could also be used to trickle-charge the battery if necessary.
I would like to take advantage of using this method of trickle-charging the battery on my 405 but haven't got a suitable plug to fit the socket. Does anyone know of a source for a 3 pin plug to fit the socket fitted to these cars?
