Heil HC4/HC5 elements were discontinued many years ago.  I believe that DX
Engineering sells a similar element for D104's.

If you want a dynamic element, I suggest the HC4 or HC5 from Heil 
Sound.  I don't know if Heil is still selling those mic elements 
separately, but they do work well in the D104 (and other mics). Just add 
enough foam padding to keep the element in place and you are done.
I have a D104 frame with an HC5 element and it works quite well. I also 
have a vintage D104 with the original element with an FET in the base 
that also works well - the FET is powered by the bias voltage from my K3 
or K2.  I know that does not help if the original D104 mic element has 
gone bad.
