Actually, you do use two per bulb (one for high beam and one for low beam).
The stock wiring is not heavy enough to handle the increased current flow,
so they will burn at connections. This happened to my motorcycle. After I
took the stock wiring out of the high current flow (by using heavier [14]
gauge wires and relays), the connector frying stopped.
I know of a few others who have made the same modifications with excelent,
reliable results.
FWIW...YMMV
