Not sure if this qualifies as a Diy.  But it was super cheap.

Yes the light is ugly, but the results are nice.

Home depot 18" t8 fixtures. 11-12ea$ I think.

I believe most companies are going to stop making T12 bulbs, because T5's are way more efficient, in a more compact size, im not sure about T8's. I know at my work they have retro-fitted all the florescent lights. What you paid is a good price, but you may want to stock up on bulbs in the near future or ask around about T8's..  I may even run out and grab one, or two and wire them together.
thanks
take care
