Need the little copper piece from map light

[Dster]

I’m restoring a 69 2000 and I’m actually making some progress, so I’m down to some details. My map light was working but it stopped so I took it out and dissembled it. Unfortunately I’ve lost the little copper piece from inside that completes the circuit. I know this is a long shot, but if anyone out there has one you don’t need, please let me know how much you want for it in addition to my undying gratitude!!
Started polishing the hubcaps yesterday. Noxon is expensive but really does the job. Next to stretch the tonneau!
Thx!

"Noxon is expensive but really does the job"

You aren't kidding, $160 for 12oz. on Amazon. I had not heard of it before. Heck, many folks are selling partially used bottles on eBay.

I “only” paid $50. Prob worth it but not totally clear!

Apologies in advance, for a potential thread hijack, but my "go to" polish for metal, is Simichrome. It also works great on plastics, like knobs, toggle switches, lenses, etc. and it goes a looooong way. I've tried nearly all of the popular brands, except Noxon, which I've never even heard of before, and I really prefer it the best. I saw it recommended on some hot rod site a long time ago, and gave it a try. I've liked it ever since. It even shines up regular hardware store, zinc plated nuts and bolts, as bright as chrome, and it has a very good anti-oxidant quality that keeps the shine very well, for a long time. I don't think anyone who tries it would be very disappointed. No, I'm not a paid advertiser.

Dster, Got a picture of the assembly where the piece is missing?

If you haven't already, try Mike Young. He's got a vast selection of used parts. He's on FB at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/6909820 ... 0134705868
