I just replaced all three neon bulbs on a V2000.  I assumed that they 
were the same as on a G05-802 since I also could not figure out the GE 
5A designation.  The schematic for the G05-802 says that NE501 is a 
NE-2H, and that NE502 & NE503 are NE-2's.
I bought a bunch of each from Jameco.  They were slightly shorter than 
the originals.  I have not tested that monitor yet...

I posted essentially the same question here on May 8 and received zero 
responses, so I had to do my own detective work.
