they split in two with a twist and lock. you remove the shield and install that then fit the rubber as you would a normal bulb then insert the main unit. yes they do stick out a fair bit so if space is tight then dont bother.

top tip, you can fit these upside down by mistake. you want the two led's to form a pyramid upwards when installing them in the headlight.

i think both bulbs are 60w rated not 'equivalent' rated. having said that i would guess that each led cob is 20w so dip uses 40w. add in the electronics+fan loss and its probably about the same.
