Yesterday I received 2 pairs of JC Whitney driving lights, part number 490430, cost $15.99 per pair and S&H for both pair was $8.99. These use 55 watt H-3 12-volt halogen bulbs.
Several months ago, I scored a pair of 6-volt H-3 55 watt halogen bulbs at the local Wal Mart, on sale for about $4.00 each. My plan is to pull the 12-volt bulbs out of a pair of the JCW driving lights and plug in the 6-volt units and see what happens. The 6-volt bulbs are made by Vector and for their hand held spotlights, models VEC124 and VEC127. The Vector part number is VEC198. I found mine in the flashlight area. I can send pictures to anyone who wants to e-mail me with "Cowl Lights" in the subject line, otherwise I'll delete unknown e-mails.
