Default need connector for inside headlamp

I need the 3 contact connector that is seemingly built in to the headlamp. The part that the harness plugs into. Does anyone know where to get one?

I got it out. To replace that ferrule it looks like you'd have to remove the rivets that hold the bowl to the bracket.

The parts houses sell rivet/nuts, so you won't have to rivet the plate back on.
