They are in fact the correct ones, now i just need the bulbs / sockets like you said. I will post pics of the whole process step by sep once i get everything. I got the rectifying diodes at radioshack but i need to find somewhere with 30ohm 20watt resistors.


I should rewrite the how-to. 5 watt resistors are adequate (industry standard 194 bulbs are ~3.8 watts). the ones you want are weatherproof sand-encased wire-wound resistors. two of these in parallel would work great:

50-ohm in parallel = 25 ohms (1/Rf = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3...)
stack next to each other, wrap with a zip tie, twist the leads together, and proceed as normal. conveniently sold in a 2-pack too, one pack on each side and you're done.
