I don't think you would want the A-500 rudder tail light on top of the tail. First, it's got the wrong shield shape that controls the angle of light projection. Second, it contains a regular light bulb plus the strobe tube, you don't need the bulb and third, it's too expensive.
I'm thinking that the little Whelan glass cover is nice and small, if there is an adapter to fit this over the base of the 'fruit jar' lense, the drag would be reduced a lot. These old strobes are modular, and have a built in power supply base.
I'm not sure about the strobe on your vertical fin tho- it probably has a remote power supply?
Replacing the big jar lens with the little 'bubble' lens should be possible...
Here is a link from Aircraft Spruce' catyalog on lighting requirements:

And here is the replacement parts list. It looks possible to replace the largest lens with one about 1/3 size with existing parts? The smallest lens would require an adapter...which might lead to 'issues'?
