Don,
 From what I have gathered the original type bulb holders are no longer 
avaiable.  I bought a Moss harness a couple of years ago and am facing a 
similar prospect to you as far as which holders to use.  The Moss ones 
used the push in type bulbs and of course there weren't any instructions 
as to what bulb to use or even what the name of the base is to try to 
research the type required.  You may need to do a combination of finding 
bulbs that are the correct spec for the holders and reusing some of the 
old ones.
What I found to be most frustrating is that the vendors don't bother to 
mention that things are different from the original and provide some 
guidance
Perhaps some of the guys working on these things everyday can give us 
some good information.
Charlie
