I bought a generic spring kit on Amazon.  Close, but not enough coils per mm, not enough tension, and my fake nubbins made out of plastic mollies were too floppy.  (Molly Nubbins, wasn't that a character in Lord of the Rings?).

 

More to come, not giving up, and thanks for all the help!

thanks, now I can spend my commute looking for pens on amazon.

Go to a dealership and act like you want to buy a car. That's where I get all my pens. ROFL

update-- nubbins and springs on the way, checking my wire routes based on the guidance here.  Will post pics when finished.  Thanks everyone!

A couple of reassembly tips:

Place a tiny dab of lube in each hole for the nubbin springs - that will keep them in place during the process.

Position the switch in the Parking Light setting - this will place the nubbins in the middle of the rockers and avoid lateral pressure that might pop one loose.

Place a tiny dab of lube on the middle of the rocker for the nubbin contact.
