Cigar/cigarette lighter

I replaced the washer pump on my bugeye dash with a cigar lighter socket. I'm looking for a "vintage" lighter with a Bakelite knob from another Healey, MG, etc. to fill the hole. Searching on eBay yields almost nothing.

Any ideas?

Someone had one with a Map Light built in. That's the ticket you want if you can't find an old Bakelite Knob.

Outline that rim with a white fine lined Sharpie and you are good to go with rest of the knobs.
