They have the same number of connections, 3.
ground - low beam - high beam

You will need another H4 plug to splice into your stock plug. I sold the pair from my SVS but I will have another one soon (this week) when I race prep (aka bastardize) the wire harness for my 94.

Does your SVS headlight have all the same parts like the pic of mine?
For each side, there should be a rubber boot, wire retaining clip and bulb.

A lot of bikes only have 1 light on for the low beam and both for high beam.

H4 is a type of bulb. There are various bulbs available to change the brightness & color. I am running 90/100 bulbs in my TLR.
