B&Q do excellent 1.5m flourescent tubes in a holder at under 9 quid each - they're 58w but you can get lower wattage ones if you want.
Or just get 12v ones from somewhere like TowSure - I've used them loads of times for trailer parts (rolls eyes) and they're both cheap and very quick to post stuff out.
