Default headlight wires

I have a 05 wide glide injected. I would like to put a dual headlight from a fatbob on it. they both have white/yellow and black wires. am I correct to say that this means I could just cut and solder same colors together and be good? thanks

Not same on all bikes, but same on all Harleys.

White is high beam.

Yellow is low beam.

Blue is the power supply to the dimmer switch.
