T5 Light Fixtures?

Hey everyone,

I want to get my very first Veiled Chameleon, so over the last few months (spare time willing :roll eyes: ) I have been building my own enclosure and its coming along pretty well! Now the only part I'm stumped over is lighting, I have a basking light in place and I am confident with that. The part thats getting me is for the UVB bulb fitting; because I am making my own enclosure, from wood, a typical canopy hood fitting won't suffice. I've been reading about T10 T8 T5 bulbs and I'm driving myself insane. I think I'm settled on T5 from what I've read but I'm struggling finding a fitting that I can use. I found this fitting for; what the description says is suitable for T8 and T10 bulbs but cant find anything similar for a T5? does anyone know of anything similar to the picture or if it even exists?!
any help would be great!
Also I want to be able to put 2 bulbs on, as I will be using lots of live plants!

I was looking at something similar the other night, if you search for IP65 or IP67 t5 sockets, you can build your own. just hook up your own balast.. bam... waterproof fluorescent fixtures.
