Thanks.
You're Welcome.
Let me know how they turn out.
If you take pics and put together some details, I'll add it to the Lighting FAQ.

they are 880 bulbs. stock size is 880st (on a formula, not sure about t/a they could be different for all i know). you can also buy 880's without a top cap on the bulbs (top of stock bulbs has a painted tip so that light isnt emitted just refleced by the housings) and they are REALLY bright, you will blind everyone but have about the same light spread on the ground as stock

The stock size is 880.
880st = SilverStar
