They do have high and low beam I'll have the car out today and take some pics. Low beam is all I ever need to use it is a huge improvement in the amount of light they give you and they where just plug and play.

I have Genssi and a resistor in each light's circuit. Some might argue it isn't aimed properly because the LEDs aren't factory but it does light up the road.

I got the LEDs and installed them. Very easy:
Remove the headlight cowl after cranking the manual **** so it is about halfway closed. You may need to disconnect the motor connector. There are 4 torx screws holding on the cowl of 2 different sizes. Then there are 4 phillips screws holding the bracket that holds the sealed beam headlight. When installing the LEDs make sure that the DOT SAE symbol is on the bottom and upside down since they rotate to reverse. No need to touch the adjustment screws or springs. Install in reverse order. Reconnect the motor connectors.
Check the alignment against your garage door or flat wall and adjust accordingly.
These lights do the high beam by illuminating all the LEDs and only a portion of them for low beam.
As you can see from the daylight pics that the high beam is very bright.

There was much hand wringing over the fog light grounding issue with some aftermarket lights in this thread and this later one recently.
I think the LED bulb makers are getting better now because the ones I bought worked fine with no mods. Here's hoping yours just work.

That pair should be able to fix it. Worked on mine.
