Looking for an NOS or very clean pair of Marchal or Cibie H4 headlighs

Thanks

Hey- I had  a pair of the 7 inch Marchal Amplilux for years, LOVED THEM!  I got them for my 62 VW bug, had to put 6V bulbs in them, but boy did they light up the night.  I moved them to my 2002 in 1980, with 12V bulbs of course.

 

I keep my eyes out for these, even without a 2002 on the road.  In fact, I have seen a couple of pairs in pretty good shape. 

 

EDIT- I found some NOS, original box, factory bagged, with original instruction sheets. They ... look ... Perfect!

 

Still looking?  I could cover them with lens protection to keep them from harm, and load some high output lamps - H3 high, H1 low.  If you like, I will wire them with a standard H4 male plug to connect to the car's harness, for plug-in simple installation.

 

The other thing I did in my 2002 was to wire the lows to STAY on when the highs came on, safe because they have a separate reflector and bulb, so nothing overheated or overloaded.  Boy, that made it REALLY easy to see the road, and is totally legal.  This would never work with standard H4 headlights, since the two filaments are on the same filament support, within a few millimeters of each other inside the same bulb, and quickly overheat when lighted together.

 

Let me know.
