A few days ago he had a pair listed. I bought 2 sets about a year ago; very reliable seller (also sells the rubber seal that goes around the lens).

If you are talking about factory glass Bosch lenses, they were only available for the H1 assemblies!

The factory H4 solution was a yellow-tinted H4 bulb.

I know there are folks in the VW crowd and others selling the "Frenchie' H1 lenses for fitting to H4 assemblies, but the optics are all wrong!

Aftermarket plastic lenses for H4 assenblies aren't too sharp, optically!
