Guido, if you need the lamp number of the wire lead lamps I will try to dig 
it up.  I need a psychic to find anything in the mess that my storage area 
has become and I think my R-1051 notebook is under about 500 pounds of other 
stuff with another in the way.

Basically, you clean out all the glue and old glass of the original bulb. 
Drill a hole in the rear cap to take one lead of the new bulb and the other 
lead comes up and tack solders to the insulated ring of the screw-cap 
housing.  You will see what I mean.  The bulb can't protrude out too far or 
it will shatter when you try to install it (don't ask how I know...)   Hot 
glue might help to set things in place.
