Pull the retractor fuse and the lights won't go up.

You in case it wasn't clear, you can't add an H4 bulb to the FTP lenses, they would melt.

The only way to do what you want is to disable the lights from lifting and shine the existing headlamps (or H4 replacements) through the FTP opening. There will of course be reduced lighting though going that direction and may be against the law in your area to drive around without the lights up at night.
