H4s Are these legit or fake?

Ok experts I am a newbie when it comes to these parts so when I got the package and noticed they were Made in the Czech Republic, I had to ask " Do I have real H4S?" I thought the H4S were made in Germany? Ive seen some with green backs and my are reddish color? I have to say for almost $300 headlights,;I am not impressed, they almost seem flimsy and weak ( as if a light blow could dent them) , but I still think the look is better then the US spec.






Since they came in chrome I would like to cover them up with some paint-able trim rings, which I have, but don't have the screws.



I checked and our hosts has the above screws for $1.90. Are these the screws I need for my paint-able trims?

Thanks in advance

That screw is for the trim ring ONLY - make certain you use the retainer screw for the actual headlight --- or it'll pop off like mine did....in traffic.

P.S. H4s are now all made in Czech, the red relays are now made in CHINA (!)
