Graydy I have a new set of pots ordered through my local truck supplier for 57 Rebuild. Google trucklite.com & look for the catalog. In the catalog search box type in 88-05950 for the pot. The bulb # is 6015 (12 volt). All the specs are there..  These are the bigger lights used in older days on trucks. The newer (80's) & up used 5-6" lights. I thought they cost around 15 to 17 bucks each... I hope this helps you...Ohh they are available in chrome also..
