H1,s and H4,s are illegal unless they have repealed a Fed code going back to 1930,s that required all headlights to be the new improved "sealed beams". The lights are obviously better but are made to a Euro standard hence the nickname. H 5,s which bear a resemblance have appeared more recently and the lens includes small raised glass dots required for the fitting of alignment equipment.The previous post about DOT approval is probably correct , H1 and H4,s don,t have it.
I bet the cop was looking for an infraction because of what you were driving or how fast not really how bright your lights were.
