Suggestions time.
I'm after a metal bodied round connector to handle 12 volts. Needs to be 4-6 poles and ideally have a panel mounted socket with the flying lead mounted plug having a screwed ring to fix the connection. Looking around the workshop a 6 pole version of what Heidenhain use to connect scales would be about right but I can't find any note of what series those connectors are from. The application is to connect headlamp wiring on a prewar car in such a way that the lights and wings can be removed with ease.
The usual sources draw a blank. The nearest suggestion has been an XLR connector but they do look rather modern for this application.
Suggestions please
