custom linetype for a CMU Block Wall

I am attempting to create a linetype for a cmu block wall with characters [  |  ] but I am struggling to get it to look the way I'd like. I know just enough to be dangerous and after many, many variations of everything in between, I've decided to ask for some help.

 

This is the code I have (.lin file attached):

*WALL-CMU,CMU WALL [  |  ][  |  ][  |  ][  |  ][  |  ]
A,0.1,-0.01,["[  |  ]",ARIAL,S=0.08,X=0.00,Y=-0.03],-0.1

 

The result is the top line and what I'm going for is the bottom line.

I would prefer not to have any lines, dashes, or dots, just the text characters.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you!

Change you first 0.1 [that's the dashes you see] to 0.  You'll probably need to change the -0.1 at the end to -0.2.
