I've never seen aviation ones that didn't come with the plug wires themselves. You might try an auto parts store (particularly the airboat crowd seems to get them from ones that cater to race car engines).

If the mags are Eisemann LA-4's there are a lot of people that restore tractors that have/make parts for them. There is also a guy that has a repair service for them that advertises in Trade-a-Plane.
