I see they are E-code lights, are these what came stock on euro model 79' porsches??
Looks like the wiring harness was modded to me though....also the bottom light wasn't hooked up and I don't see any connections for it...I only have high beams, I thought my switch was bad but no it looks like I don't have wires going to the low beam.

Those are the desireable euro H4 headlights that our DOT never liked.
You should have low beams.
If the bulb is good and it's wired correctly and still not working there's fuses, hopefully a relay if one has been installed, and the hi-lo beam switch on the steering column could be bad.
Use a test light or voltmeter to see if you're getting 12 volts to the low beam terminal.

The seperate little 4 watt bulb that isn't hooked up is called a "city light".
You can easily hook it up to your parking light circut if you want.

that second bulb is not the low beam. That's the euro city running lights. wire the second bulb into the corner marker lights if you want them, or just leave it disconnected. You don't need them in north america. They are for european cities where you are not allowed to use headlights in the city. The lights will light up a bit just as a marker light.

I have them on my new H 4's and I hooked them up to the parking light circuit.

you can also hook them up as a daytime running light.

Cool, well now I just have to upgrade bulbs or get a hid kit. Do standard 9004 replacement bulbs work with this?

ayglass

Yes, regular 9004 bulbs work in them. The only caveat is that the stock headlight switch has to carry all the current, so don't go too crazy with the wattage of the replacement bulbs. If you want to go with higher rated bulbs then investigate one of the relay kits. They put relays under the hood to take the load off of the headlight switch.

you can make a relay kit yourself, I have made several, its cheap and easy and I have never had a fire because of one of my relay kits......
