something like this work as you see i not great with electrics and this is only way i understand them .

It'll work, though they might still stop you for insufficient light (the bulb will be glowing red instead of yellow/white).

Better is to go with LED lights.
There's plenty options for that, and your battery will last longer!

9-13V = 3 LEDS in series.
