Excellent question, my barf-colored-car-owning friend.  From what I recall,
the Autopal lights RPI sells have metal reflectors.  The Bosch lights I
used to have had glass reflectors.  Which is better?  Autopal's metal
reflectors might take more heat than Bosch's, but their reflective coating
might not be as durable?  Who knows.  But they're cheap, and let you get
into an H4 without shelling out the big bucks for Hella or big-ish bucks
for Bosch.
