James,
Unfortunately there are a lot of differences between the SAE lights and the
E-Code lights and there is no way of just swapping bulbs.  The reflector and
socket are completely different.

Why would one need new "shells" (buckets?) wouldn't the H-4s fit
right where the SAE ones go? They do need a different connector
however.
