I bought a pair of H4s for the wifes Yaris for about £4 on ebay last month, I'm pretty sure I paid £20 a pair in Halfords about 3 years ago.
Re: Probably a very old question indeed
As Bongo headlights are proverbially weak don't buy standard ones, buy the "upgrade" Hi-Power ones.
Phillips and Osram (among others) make them and they are noticeably better.

I've just had some of the El Cheapo ones blow after less than a year.

I'll check and let you know - it may have been one of Dave Edwards's "What" shop ones.
It was certainly one of the Blue tinged ones.
