Early Model EICO Model 232 VTVM

Well I found a manual for the uniprobe over at the BAMA and according to the manual the uniprobe came either pre-built or in kit form, and the one in kit form didn't come with a connector plug so you had to supply your own plug which would mean that you could use any type of plug you wanted whether it was the old switchcraft mic jack, or 1/4" mic jack or an XLR style jack.

I bought the kit form because the 10meg isolating had to be installed.
Also, I used the mic plug the came with the meter.

OK, so I found yesterday in a box of old electronic test equipment a piece of test gear called a TV Dynatracer made by a company called Century Electronics Co. and its apparently a self-contained signal-tracer that all it has inside of it to make it run is a small mica capacitor, and a small carbon composition resistor all tied to a neon glow-bulb on one side and on the other side a metal tip and then a small length of wire that has an aligator clip attached to it.

I was wondering if there was some way to modify this Dynatracer device so that it could be used as a test probe for my EICO Model 232 VTVM? If so what modifications would I need to do to it to make it work?

See picture below.
