My newest idea to get more light into my garage above the Z is to wire either 2 or 4 2-bulb 48" florescent fixtures above the car. I am going to run them side by side and will start with just two but if it doesn't cover the car entirely I am going to add two more length wise. I know they make 8ft fixtures but bulb availability is less common and I can't find the fixtures locally.

Basically what my question boils down to is if and how I can wire the fixtures to the existing incandescent bulb (standard garage/basement/attic fixture).

Any sites/diagrams that might help with what I want to do? I am not overly experienced with things like amps and other stuff but I am pretty confident I can tackle this (with a little guidance).

Side note... trying to wax, dry, clean the Z with a single incandescent bulb is just about retarted.

I will add that I also have an outlet on the ceiling for my garage door motor which I can utilize if the bulb fixture won't suffice but again I need some advice on what kind of wiring to use, where to find a plug, and how to wire the units together so they use one plug.
