Default What would be best way to go from 12 VDC to 12 VAC, 350 Ma, freq not critical?

Here's a$15 turnkey solution:

A $10 12VDC-to-115VAC power inverter:

+ a $5 12VAC wall transformer:

I have a special ozone generating lamp that requires approx 12 VAC at
330 MA (will have to be current limited, as it strikes a gaseous arc
and too much current will melt the filaments). I would like to use it
in an automotive application.

What would you suggest for circuitry to make the conversion?
Frequency is not critical, but some form of current limiting is.
