I would replace the bulbs with dollar store solar lights. It's easy to remove the top of the light from the postHelpful Reply -

Take out the light bulbs and insert tops of solar lights in a size and style that fit your decor. I would also turn off the electricity to the post.Helpful Reply -

Some solar light tops meant for inground use will fit into the bulb sockets. If your lights don't hang down, that is an easy fix. Just disconnect the electricityHelpful Reply -
