I have done this by carefully sliding out the wires with the bulbs attached from the tube. Solder in known good bulbs from another tube. Easiest and cheapest was is to purchase a single tube over twice as long as you need and have Vista put a pigtail on each end. That way you can cut it and make two of the correct length. Be careful when you cut it that you stagger the length of the two wires so they won't short out. Also squeeze a bit of silicone into the cut end. That is what Blue Bird did.
