    If you mean H1s, easy peasy... Bosch #1305614010, pairs available new for about £50 on eBay UK.

    H4s are the same up to the 964 and also readily available, Bosch #1305614005

    Plus, if you want yellow it's MUCH cheaper in RDH than LHD!

    I think the e1 4487 is the earlier asymmetrical lens, also used on 356s.
    Porsche part numbers LHD = 90163111100 or RHD = 90163111101
    The H4 lens should also work with your bulb/housing.

    A 68S should have H1's.

    Did you ever get to the bottom of your chassis number/date of production issue?
