Hello Michael,
no one else has jumped in, so,
http://www.directindustry.com/prod/anovay-technology-limited/bayonet-lock-electrical-connector-56927-388603.html
do a search for "bayonette plug or better yet, cannon plug and
you'll turn up what you want. .. be ready to solder.
The problem with ONE universal ground is that it needs to be
large enough to carry the entire load, and with a couple of big
bright headlights, like H-80s or H-100's you're looking at a #6
or #4 wire. The problem with multiple ground points is more
places to have to trouble shoot when things go wrong, and more
things to go wrong. Pick your poison.
As an electrican, I would be inclined to have a separate ground
for each headlight, but combined for high and low beams, spliced
in the headlight buckets so that one ground comes back for each
side. trouble shooting shouldn't be to hard that way.
Do you want to drive at night with failed headlights? if not
that's why they're not fused (aside from cost savings in
manufacturing these "throw away" cars that is), but if you're
gonna use big lights, do you want a failure in the headlight
circuit keep the car from even starting, or would you rather the
car keep running and replace the KNOWN fuse in the headlight
circuit rather than chasing through the single circuit running
through the whole car..
I've heard that the headlights get brighter when separated into
their own circuits with dedicated wires all the way back to the
fuse box. This would be the way to go if you intend to run big
lights. I'd throw fuses into the circuit just to protect the rest
of the car from bad things coming from the lighting circuit.
my two cents.
