your low beam plug has high beam power too, just not used on the F model.  you can swap the yellow and white position on your factory plug, and just plug it directly into your shiver headlight, and you will be good to go 

What?  Wait....  I don't claim to be an expert, and I don't have an F model.  But it's an H4 bulb right?  That's Low/High combined in one.  Needs all 3 wires.  Yellow for high, white for low, black/white for ground.

The "2 separate wires" go to the parking light.  A low wattage light.

I don't have an F model either but judging from the microfiche for an '06 model the high beam and low beam are 2 filaments in the same bulb (#5).  The lower bulb (#6) looks to be a tag/instrument type bulb that probably acts as a marker light.

I must have said yellow high, white low, and black ground 3 times now. they dont listen.

he was the one that said the high was on a seperate plug, if the high beam on it is a seperate plug, than my information is correct, but looking at the diagram posted here, the high beam wire and ground will need to be extended to the new lights'  high beam bulb

ok here goes, from looking at my haynes manual specifically the wire diagram, what you would need to do is connect the yellow to the high beam, the white to the low beam and then from there you would need to connect the black and white to either of them and then piggy back it to the other if that makes sense.
