This is exactly what I did. Just used a couple of old-school ceramic bases and
loaded them 150W-equivalent CFL's, powered from the original wires going to
the garage-door-opener bulb socket. (Probably not to code here in Texas in
2019.)
I do have 12 T-8 fixtures loaded with "daylight" bulbs to light up the
garage/shop at other times. I didn't see a need to fire these up when I drive
in.
